the first thing the Barn teaches a newbe is that Les is more! today's question

About 6 people with small flat screwdrivers pushing at one time.

I've used a socket of the appropriated diameter to drive in the cap. Then give it a little dent in the center with ball peen hammer to spread it out and keep it in the slot.
