I hadn't decided quite how to re-do the pinblocks. I was thinking that I might pop the top veneer off, plug with high-quality plugs set in epoxy, and then put a new veneer on the top. Anyone care to argue one way or another regarding time required to do this compared to a complete new block and regarding the quality of the final outcome? Thanks Terry Farrell ----- Original Hey Terry I've only done one of these & if I were doing it again I'd plug it again. I don't beleive it's possible for me to duplicate all that case mortising without compromising all that original structural integrity , nor do I want to. Besides plugging is fairly painless once you get set up & with good maple plugs feels like, well....
