bridge repair advice

[Tvak@AOL.COM]

Next week I'm going to attempt to repair a cracked bass bridge by gluing it 
back together.  Never having done this before, I'm hoping for some advice 
from those of you who have tried this before.  The bridge, on a 1935 Monarch 
upright, is cracked and separated along the bridge pins.  I plan to separate 
fully the loose piece, remove the bridge pins, epoxy and clamp the bridge 
together, and re-insert the bridge pins before the glue sets.   

Any comments or advice would be greatly appreciated.

P.S.
This is kind of a no lose situation, in that the cost of replacing the bridge 
is prohibitive to the owner.  (I got estimates from 2 RPTs who encouraged me 
to try gluing the bridge myself.) They got the piano for free; no pianists in 
the house;  oldest child is 5, so the piano hopefully was to be used for 
beginning piano lessons in a couple of years.  So if the repair doesn't work, 
not much is at stake.  It's a good situation for me to venture into the 
unknown.
