HI Larry
  The wooden Core/slot on after market knuckles  varies.  I set my slotting 
jig up to use Tokiwa knuckles. They fit the saw  blade  available from Dewalt.
   As I recall the Renner ones & Abels are  thicker. The Tokiwa ones fit 
snugly & solidly but only cause I chose that  saw blade.  If you are simply 
removing the old wood then experiement with  the others.  You may find one that fit 
s juuuusst right

List... I have a set of knuckles to install and the wood core is  slightly 
narrower than the slot (it reaches the bottom). Is it acceptable to  install and 
let the glue fill in the gap or should I shim it with paper or  anything 
else? Or is it unacceptable to have a wood core that isn't snug?  Thanks for your 
help.
