This is actually pretty simple. Here's an example of making two configurations. I didn't bother with any captions on the tutorial because I think it's pretty self-explanatory.
See what you think

Sorry Voder, can’t open your file. I am still on SU6. I tried to down load SU7 several times without success. I am surprised that Google doesn’t have functioning server???
Any way here is method two; a pin with larger diameter added where slot is cut. To make the pin and slot cutter I must used Follow me tool. At the end I just smoothed the edges.

Of course this level of detail is a over kill if you are just working on assembly.
