Subject: agraffe/agraffe shaving jig?


 Hi all,
 
I replaced a broken agraffe on a Sohmer 57 grand that's 31 years old, but
the shoulder is too high, which leaves the strings too high as well.  It
works, more or less, but it sounds kind of buzzy at the moment.  I want to
get the job done correctly.
 
The shoulder on the stock Schaff agraffes is 1/8" thick, I believe, and what
I need is closer to 1/16".  If anybody has 1/4" agraffes with a 1/16"
shoulder, I'll gladly purchase them.  I need one for a bicord.
 
IN the absence of that, does anyone have a way of shaving down the shoulders
for a better fit?  And would this affect the its ability to thread into the
plate?  Former chapter member Carl Meyer, rest his soul, almost certainly
had just the device (and advice) I need...
 
Thanks,
 
Dave Stahl
