Apparently, it was too difficult to direct the CA at the bottom of the tuning pin, and instead an easier route was chosen to just pour the CA over the coil and let it run down into the hole. Since I'm now repinning, the CA didn't work all that well on pin tightness, but it was most excellent at insuring the becket was unable to leave it's little home in the tuning pin. ;-)" Regards, Rob, I'd just suggest you get busy with a big honkin' set of diagonal cutters. Snip the wires and then back the pins out with either a reversable drill or air drill. No biggy, imo. Why do you need to take the wire out of the becket hole? In reality, you're just going to toss those old pins anyway. So, what's the big deal?<G> It's obvious that someone really didn't understand how one is supposed to apply CA. I suspect it was the wrong vicosity, as well. That's my take on it.<G> Joe Joe Garrett, R.P.T. Captain of the Tool Police Squares R I
