    Joseph,
        I recently replaced some plates . These were in the same =
mortises and although  the depth of the mortises was correct the holes =
did not line up for the new plates.=20
        I drilled out the existing holes and glued in hardwood plugs =
(not dowells) Then with the plates  locked together on the leg,  I =
applied a small amount of C.A. to the plate that attatches to the =
piano--Careful not to glue them together !--- then put the leg in place =
correctly positioned , wait for the C.A. to bond, carefully remove the =
leg and there you have it , the leg plate positioned and ready for =
drilling and screws .  Tom Driscoll

      List,
      I don't find any info in the archives on this subject and my PTG =
Journal CD is not up and running yet,,,so, could someone please walk me =
thru the process of locating the male/female parts on their respective =
case parts, and still get the legs to line up in the original locations? =
 I have already routed out enough wood for the new plates to have room =
to fit (they were larger than the originals). I have already installed =
T-nuts for the retaining screws and don't want to jeopardize this work =
by mis-locating the plates!

      Thanks in advance,
