Spinning in the drill is a great idea which I wouldn’t have thought of. That’s actually a temporary pin that I filed down from a finishing nail (panel pin in UK). I do like the rounded shape. I tried it on a project yesterday and it was very comfortable to use. Almost as much as my usual “go-to” gauge: an old Stanley #65 with the rounded/triangle shape.
