[pianotech] Fitting pinblock with epoxy

[William R. Monroe]

I've used clear packing tape in the webbing area and mold release on the
flange.  The packing tape is nice if you also glass the top of the block (I
do).  I know, probably not necessary, but the epoxy is already mixed, and,
why not.  The packing tape is rigin enough to keep the epoxo out of the
webbing holes.  Though, it doesn't really matter that much, once you've
center punched, drilled and chamfered the pinblock.  ;-]   I just feel good
doing it that way.  Another option.

  Terry, Ron, David, Dale, or anyone else who has done this.

  I have just finished fitting a pinblock and I'm 95% +. I would like to try
using epoxy for the final perfect fit. What should I use as a release agent
on the plate?

  Thanks,

  Al
