have two open-face pinblocks coming up in my shop - a Knabe and a Bechstein. 
I hadn't decided quite how to re-do the pinblocks. I was thinking that I might 
pop the top veneer off, plug with high-quality plugs set in epoxy, and then 
put a new veneer on the top. Anyone care to argue one way or another regarding 
time required to do this compared to a complete new block and regarding the 
quality of the final outcome? Thanks

Something about plugs has always bothered me. We have always completely 
replaced blocks, so this may be simple paranoia on my part. I just can't believe 
that it could be equal to a new block. 

I'm looking forward to hearing more comments on this subject.
