REcapping the bridge

[Fenton Murray]

David,
Much better than my method of drilling holes in the bridge. I've thought of these 3 ways clamps but didn't think they'd work will, guess I was wrong.

  I use pony clamps http://www.adjustableclamp.com/cl-3300.htm and Bolduc Glue.  Rough cut the caps to precalculated height plus a mm or two.  Plane, scrape and sand to final height.  Cut little wooden spacers to protect the side and top of the bridge from clamp marks-another use for those Renner action parts sticks.  .

  To continue this superb thread on bridge work where the bridge remains on the panel, and the panel remains inside the rim:  what are our esteemed readers preferred methods for gluing on the new cap?
