These were in the same mortises and although the depth of the mortises was correct the holes did not line up for the new plates. I drilled out the existing holes and glued in hardwood plugs (not dowells) Then with the plates locked together on the leg, I applied a small amount of C.A. to the plate that attatches to the piano--Careful not to glue them together !--- then put the leg in place correctly positioned , wait for the C.A. to bond, carefully remove the leg and there you have it , the leg plate positioned and ready for drilling and screws . Tom Driscoll ----- Original Message ----- From: Joseph Alkana To: pianotech@ptg.org Sent: Sunday, June 17, 2001 7:39 AM Subject: grand leg plates List, I don't find any info in the archives on this subject and my PTG Journal CD is not up and running yet,,,so, could someone please walk me thru the process of locating the male/female parts on their respective case parts, and still get the legs to line up in the original locations? I have already routed out enough wood for the new plates to have room to fit (they were larger than the originals). I have already installed T-nuts for the retaining screws and don't want to jeopardize this work by mis-locating the plates!
