Ric, I think the question you have to ask yourself is if you would feel regret later after not having recapped. Regret sucks! I'm not sure how you would shave down evenly at the rate of 5 unisons at a time anyway. Did you maybe over compensate for board deflection in designing the dimension of the bridge?

Well then... one thing is for sure. Next time around the place and bridge will be glued in place instead of clamped. I dont really understand what could have changed so much but something sure as heck did. I'm going to see what I can get done by plugging, shaving down, and redrilling first. But if it comes to it then I wont hesitate to recap. Besides... practice makes... well better if not perfect. Thanks for the input. Cheers RicB Bite the bullet and recap the bridges. It'll be more work to fudge it. "If a job is worth doing, it's worth doing over". I hate it when that happens. Regards, Jon Page
