Yeah it's cast iron not wood. So what is the purpose of these three metal "inserts"? Since I sublet the stringing out to someone else-he's the best, and many techs I know use his stringing services-I guess I will have to alert him to these inserts to make sure that he puts them in proper place before re-stringing! Just not sure why they even exist, and why there are "spaces" there to begin with. Does it make removal of the plate easier?

Here's pics of the action and whipps.
