Gordon Large Mt. Vernon, ME >> Gordon--Thanks for the suggestion. I will try it. Another person suggested the same thing but I was afraid driving the pin with the dowel would cause the pilot hole to get deeper. By the time I got to end of the ro the pins could be 1/4" higher. Of course I would see that but then the advantage of doing this was would be lost. It will be worth and experiment however. Thanks Dick Marshall, MI
