Couple of times I've tried CA on a non-tipped vertical, it dripped down, got into the string/pressure bar contact point. Big wince, Q-tips and debonder to try to minimize damage. Once it dripped onto a damper. I feel very nervous about trying it again. Can you talk about how you apply it? Jason Kanter || ||| || ||| ----- Original Message ----- From: "William R.
