D'Addario Tuner Broke

I'm a bit disappointed. The D'Addario tuner I bought a couple of years ago has broken. The actual tuner is compact, accurate and a doddle to use. Unfortunately that's no use when the clip has broken.

The hinge pins are part of the plastic clip and have sheared off. I'm wondering if it's worth the hassle of drilling it out and fitting a decent metal hinge pin or whether to just bin it :(

One of mine did the same and yes, I drilled out the middle and slid a rivet post through the middle. A quick fix to get me through as I think these are really good for the money.

Actually yes, a rivet post would be about the right size. Good thinking that man!
