Glide bolts

[Roger Jolly]

Hi David,
                Yes it would.
  I often glue a veneer in the area just under the dags, then sand to fit 
for a firm, yet still free hold down.   Sanding and fitting the back rail 
can be a pain.
Key frame fitting with out the stack on, is a waste of time, since the 
stack often distorts the frame. The stack to frame fit, can also be the 
source of the bedding problem, particularly on soft wood frames.

Regards Roger
