Can't see how to remove the plate without destroying the stretcher. The stretcher has an integral cap which overhangs the front plate flange. Photo attached. Quite attractive in its finished form, but gets in the way of lifting the plate. Can't slide the plate back until it's lifted above the nose bolts, two of which are only 12" away from the flange. Unless someone has a better idea, I plan to cut away the offending part of the stretcher, then re-veneer the exposed surface, which faces the plate flange. I'm not afraid of the woodworking required, but would as soon avoid the work if possible. Better ideas?? thanks Mike Michael Spalding spalding48@earthlink.net ------=_NextPart_84815C5ABAF209EF376268C8 An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
