---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Avery I personally see little benefit from this extra step (mess). It doesn't take more than an hour to fit the average block nicely to the flange. & don't forget the shear strength of the 40 plus screws as well. I've not experienced tuning instability do to fitting a block in the conventional manner so what is the glassing really for? It must be necessary to at least fit the flange fairly well to start with & then the liquid aggravation ?(gnash). I don't see it as needed but to each there own. For me it's overkill for some it makes them feel more secure about getting every last spot to touch which I understand in theory. I'll be the lone dissenter along with you of course. Dale Erwin I don't mean to be a smart a** here, but why not sand, file, whatever, with the liquid chalk "stuff" to make it fit correctly? That's the way I've always heard it should be done, anyway.
