[CAUT] pictures of new key weighting pattern

[Wolfley, Eric (wolfleel)]

Chris,

 

I use wood plugs too and haven't had any problem with drill bit
wandering if that's the issue. I use a good, sharp forstner bit.  I
place the plugs with the grain running 90 deg. to the key's grain which
stops any splitting from overzealous lead swaging.  I've even been
fairly successful at finding wood for the plugs that matches the key's
color. Sitka spruce is good.

sounds good Jon, I'm not against fast altogether when it is part and
parcel with good. How is drill bit clogging?

Thanks,

Chris Solliday

		For one thing there is no glue line

	 

	I use PVC-E glue to glue in plugs so it will not produce a
hardened

	area as much as a Titebond, epoxy or similar product.  Drill bit

	wandering is not an issue in the case anyway but time is.

	 

	Good and Fast.
