I had new nuts done for my clients in Germany and South-Africa since years.
Gladly, we found someone to take on the problem in the US and solve it with the help of all here :-)
Ironically, Kirkham does not even use that setup!
Now we can start a new thread about the spinners...

Dom,
Another problem I did not address is the potential under such extremes for galled material to push itself under one side of the nut and "tip" it to one side or another. Thus making wheels very hard, if not impossible, to take off and put back on as the bolt hole circle will not be in the proper orientation.
Bending the pin straight is a very BAD idea. You will load an even smaller area of the pin on the side you bent it towards and have the pin fail even faster. If the pins don't line up then you need to step back, find the problem, and correct it.
I will address concentricity shortly. I suspect it is not too good.
