    That's what I usually do, also.  Someone remarked a while back that 
he thought using the cork or clip-on straps was unprofessional and that 
the only way to go was to glue them into the butt along with the catcher 
shank.  But I serviced a studio upright two weeks ago where the bridles 
were originally glued by the factory into where the catcher is glued to 
the catcher shank, and not into the butt.   Only one I've ever seen like 
that (done by the factory, that is).  --David Nereson, RPT
