Hi Terry,

One problem you may find is that as you drive the latest pin another will
*pop* up. Wood can have porous connections between the holes. Good luck!

refurbishing the bridge. I'd be afraid to do that on a new bridge. I
suspect there is always some resonable concern regarding how much epoxy is
absorbed into the wood and out of the void between pin and wood before the
epoxy hardens. My plan is to swab the hole with unthickened West System
epoxy and drive the pin into a normal tight hole.
