The epoxy is probably harder then the dowels, so no problems have occured there. For lub I rub a light coat of parafine wax, also seems very durable. No squeek problems encountered. As to friction, if I had to guess, I would say it was less than the end grain of the dowels. The one draw back is that it is a little noisier if not bedded correctly. I can't think of a better fix tho'. Unless you drill out the worn ones and replace them. Regards Roger
