 Drilling into the Mount

 Now that the knight has been prepared, the next step is to prepare the horse. For this you'll need paint, the pin vice with the larger bit, and a pointed file. 

 Step five starts with placing a small amount of paint on the end of the pin. Before the paint dries, place the knight as evenly as you can on the horse. This gives you the point where to drill into the saddle. 

 

  

  The spot of paint is the point on the saddle is where Step six will happen, taking the larger drill bit and drilling into the horse.  

  

  
  
 Here you can see our horse, along with the pegasus, both drilled and ready to go.
 
 
 
 Step seven is to check the fit of the pinned legs. If the pin-and-slot do not go smoothly, then you can either drill a larger hole or use the file on the hole to make the fit better.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
  
 Our knight is now able to be fielded on either horse or pegasus, and all three can be safely stored with little hassle! (Except for the pegasus. Darn wings!) It may seem like a lot of work, but the heartache that can be saved will make all the work entirely worth it.
