Hey JD

You might look into using the epoxy putty that Stanwood boys use to fill 
emptied key lead holes.  Often enough  all leads are removed from keys 
and new holes bored to match Stanwoods lead patterns.  This of course 
sometimes sees the new holes drilling into some of the newly epoxy putty 
filled original lead holes.

I'm not sure how this epoxy putty will do when asked to hold a flange 
screw in place however.  Perhaps some of the others on the list have  
some direct experience using this stuff for such an application.

Cheers
RicB
