This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Hi all, I've been interested in starting to do my own key recovering again. = Years ago, I recovered a number of sets with tops only, sometimes with = separate fronts, but never the one piece kind. I glued them on with = Duco cement and sanded down the sides with a 1" belt sander. Those were = in the 'good old days'... (a lot of water went under the bridge since = then...) The last few years, I've sent sets to 4 or 5 different places that = recover them, and the results are quite mixed. Some do good work, some = is not so good. Well, now I'm interested in getting into it again, but I'm not sure what = tools or jigs are available to assist with this job. I know things have = come a long way since the early '80s. A few years ago, there was an ad = in the Journal for the "Peterson Router Guide", and there may have been = others, but I've not seen anything of this nature for a while. =20 If any of you are recovering your own keys, I'd be interested in how = you're doing it. Did you find jigs or tools already made? Did you make = your own? What kinds of glue do you find work the best? Is there an = article in the Journal that I've missed? I do have access to most going = back about 10 years or so. Thanks for your input.
