repair advice

[Farrell]

Likely best to try and keep it in the same line to minimize damper problems. Also, I should think a nail of similar diameter cut to length would work fine also.

      Hi David:
      I had one of these awhile back and located and drilled a new hole for a new pin near the original one.  You have a little latitude sideways or above or below,  but try to keep the string in about the same place.  Drill a hole, then use a drill bit the next size larger cut or ground to the proper length and drive it into the hole just drilled.  A little gold paint and "voila."  Good luck!
