I did a similar repair to an S$S B about 20 years ago, using a lost-to-history type of epoxy and I've noticed lately (as in yesterday, when I tuned it) that the erosion has gone beyond the original repair and the original repair is presenting a knife edge of epoxy to unsuspecting errant fingers. I've been mulling over in my mind the possibility of inlaying fresh wood on those sides, but hadn't gotten to the point yet of imagining any easy way to do that. I'll have to instead lay in a supply of West system.
