ne caveat though is that often with the block screwed to the plate in the dry 
fit mode you'll notice that there may be a small tapered gap at between the 
treble pinblock end & the shelf with the block screwed to the plate. Or usually 
the front edge is touching but there is a space towards the back. You may 
have to cut a fine tapered shim or maple veneers on the tablesaw to fill in the 
glue joint. 
 As you probably know STWY has an extravagant set up to fit the top of the 
block to the plate flange which us lowly underlings can't afford.

   By the way the last time did this job I built a tapered ramp for my 
laminate trimmer to ride on & cut the angle neede  the pin block glue joint so it 
required no shim.
