Key Bushing Method, was: Key flexing

[Farrell]

My key bushing experience is limited to rebushing old keys with the original 
key buttons using the Spurlock method. Unless I'm really too-pid, the only 
way one is going to bush the center rail mortises on that type of key setup 
is from the top. Now I realize you used new buttons and that is likely the 
difference. Did you bush them before button installation? Did you bush from 
the bottom? If so, why? What would be the advantage?

Don't you do anything the "proper way"? You know, the way the original 
masters did it?   ;-)
