Flangeless, single shoulder spring bars and bracelet installation

[waterman1]

Whatever you do, do not install shoulderless (flangeless) bars on a bracelet.

I'm thoroughly confused. And I can't post links until I have at least 10 posts under my belt which makes it harder to explain.

From other threads:

This matches with what "ofrei dot com slash page_155 dot html" says. Looking at another reference that only ever came with drilled lugs, "gmtmaster1675 dot com slash the-bracelet" shows a flangeless spring bar which is presumably correct.

It looks to me like these are the correct spring bars for my case and bracelet, and that the best way to install the OE bracelet with the OE springbars is to tape the lugs and use plastic tweezers or the blunt end of a skewer like we see at "youtube dot com slash 9z8tDnFsXH0?t=212"

... but I'm trying to learn so I'm happy if someone can tell me where I'm off target, if that's the case.
