Freehand. Just made sure I went a quarter-inch or so beyond all tuning =
pin holes. Obviously I ended up with an irregular pattern - but that way =
I saved all the original plate screw holes. I then cut the new block to =
match the routed out area.

template?

  I've only done one. I routed out the tuning pin area and epoxied in =
new pinblock material. Seems to have worked out quite well. Was pretty =
easy to do.
