[CAUT] a bad habit??

[Joe And Penny Goss]

Hi,
If the brass corners are bade of U channel they are too small usually to fit
over the edge of the music rack without removing wood from the back side
with a chisel.
My last coustomer who used them himself, simply purchased a panel of birch
wood to fit the brass channel. Then stained and finished the rack.
