I have to say I am mightily pleased with the result from this method. It has been so much easier than my last Shannon.
This is the only solder required apart from the junction of the second leg.
The socket sleeve is fitted with a dab of slow CA and the brass pin is responsible for preventing it ever moving.
The larger 4mm ID short sleeve is again pinned with 1mm rod but filed off to make invisible and will be covered in solder.
The larger sleeve is then set into the deck by very carefull use of a 5mm hss bit held in the fingers only until the stanchion sits to the right depth in the foot plate.
Then just the one solder cleaned up with a round needle file.
Because the plate is soldered with the correct attitude to the deck and the vertical it now stands unaided.
No appreciable scorching, this is a cross between resin flux and softened primer.
Angle unique to each and every stanchion

Cleaned up and pin swapped around. NO glue
