Hello Del. When you wax your plate flange, you must use some thin, =
wipe-on type of wax, such that it doesn't fill small depressions that =
may be present in the plate flange surface - or is that not really a big =
deal? What do you do.

How thick do you make your epoxy mixture - peanut butter?

Also, when you put your epoxy mixture in, what is your exact procedure =
in order to avoid having excess epoxy migrate to the area between the =
pinblock top and the plate web bottom and thus impair the fit. Do you =
screw the pinblock to the plate first and then mooosh epoxy into any =
small gaps between the pinblock and flange? Or do you put a bead of =
epoxy on the flange edge of the pinblock and draw it into the flange =
somehow? Thanks.

    What products are people using for glassing the pinblock to the =
plate flange?

  WEST epoxy with lots of wood flour from our stroke sander. Wax that =
puppy first. (Don't ask.)
