When you wax your plate flange, you must use some = thin, wipe-on type of wax, such that it doesn't fill small depressions that = may be present in the plate flange surface - or is that not really a big deal? = What do you do.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>How thick do you make your epoxy mixture - peanut butter?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Also, when you put your epoxy mixture in, what is your exact = procedure in order to avoid having excess epoxy migrate to the area between the = pinblock top and the plate web bottom and thus impair the fit. Do you screw the = pinblock to the plate first and then mooosh epoxy into any small gaps between the = pinblock and flange? Or do you put a bead of epoxy on the flange edge of the = pinblock and draw it into the flange somehow?
