CA pinblock with plate bushings

[Don]

Hi Ron,

If you use the *water thin* CA glue the problem is more how to keep it from
running out the bottom of the block. I have done a Yamaha with plate
bushings. There was no problem at all with it wicking down thru. I apply it
at the base of the tuning pin and cohesion (sp?) does the rest--it runs
down the pin, right into the hole.
