vintage chickering plate removal

[William R. Monroe]

Fenton,

Very interesting.  I must say I would not have considered trimming the plate
in this way.  Interesting stuff.  Thanks for the link.

Bill,
Lots of pit falls the I wouldn't want to go into, but as far as pulling a
tricky plate, here is how I did an old Bosey. I cut out part of the plate
and part of the case. Sounds awful but it wasn't bad. See link to pics.
