Using the epoxy method, the holes can be filled in about 15 minutes without having to spend the time precutting plugs. For the rest of the job, we're doing the same thing.

If you are cutting plugs it takes a lot longer. My capstan plugs are precut. The last capstan relocation took four hours, from removing the first capstan to installing the last one. I like wooden plugs cut from old keys because there is no waiting overnight for the epoxy to cure. -- Regards, Jon Page -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
