>I must dive in to my first treble bridge recapping job.  I have only done a bass bridge thus far and it was only beveled, not notched.   Maybe the difficulty of this job can be taken down a few notches if I get the best tools and wonder what you would recommend.

> 

> I have looked at the Mazzaglia website and saw:

> Bridge pin tri-punches

> Massive chisels

> Bearing saw

> Bearing gauges

> Bearing lines

> Notch tool - for cutting and cleaning the sides of the notches

> Bridge capping washers - is this for putting pressure on the joint while gluing on the new cap?

> 

> Do you recommend PianoTek's bridge capping material or who else.

> 

> I have read Bob Hohf's article on Bridge Recapping - not artilcle more like a book.  Is there another good writing on this ? - need something concise

> I know I'm going to  have a lot of questions on this and will also look over the archives.

> Thanks.
