Would it be possible to build a small "tool" of metal, like the male pin
(width & thickness) as a "Go/No Go" checker?
By using this "tool" you may be able, and handier, to adjust the female
pins and FEEL whether they are:

   1. too tight,
   2. too loose, or
   3. just about the correct amount of tension as the male pin is slipped
   in and out of the female connector.
