Subject: Filling Deck Holes

Well....I'm glad to see that another E-27 is in the same boat as me!!! I also need to do a bunch of rebedding and this info is very useful... A. I had no idea that epoxy shrinks...I thought only Bondo shrunk and products that use a cream hardener... B. The G-10 also makes great sense for compression.

My big problem is that I still need to figure out what hardware is going back on :)

Thanks for sharing your trials and tribulations, etc. I almost feel like I have joined some type of fraternity here!!!

Best Regards,

Pete

:: Hi all,

:: Taped on wax paper under the hole? Wait until epoxy is a
