Nocks to loose?

I followed a tip on here and sanded my nocks to get a looser fit. They where so tight they where messing up the server. Well... I got a couple of them too loose. Any way to tighten them up a little?

Elu--I usually stop the heating of the water just before boiling-let it cool a little-dip the nock and test to see if it has softened up. Be careful and wear a glove. It doesn't take much.--Bone

I dip my nocks in about a 1/2 " of boiling water for a couple of seconds and then snap them on and off the string untill they just fit smoothly. Best way to get just the right fit.
