I still do it because it insures a perfect fit to the flange. I can =
only go through carving the block for so long. I get it to fit as close =
as is reasonable in a reasonable amount of time, use marine epoxy paste =
which is very thick and doesn't run all over the place. Smear on just =
enough to have a small bit of squeeze out, wipe off the excess and it's =
done. =20

I would be interested in what type of release agent/material folks =
use on the plate flange when epoxy-fitting the block to the flange. You =
don't want to have to undo cast iron epoxied to hard maple!

I didn't realize folks were going to the trouble of epoxy =
fitting the block to the flange. For what purpose?. I've done it years =
ago what a mess. I don't find any tuning stability problems with a nice =
block to flange fit. Is this insurance or what. Somebody kindly splain =
dis to me. There's already so many pickin details in complete =
remanufacture. Really!
