[QUOTE="Alibiiv, post: 1878824, member: 69192"] If you can find some 5/16th inch tubing (inside diameter of tubing), you can cut the tubing to length so that it just sits about the wood where the trigger guard sits; about a hair above the wood, the same with the front pillar. You could make a couple of wax-paper washers to place between the screws and the floor-plate to help hold the pillar so that it sticks up just about the wood. Once the epoxy is hardened they will come right out. Drill the wood out so there is enough clearance around the tubing for the epoxy to sit in around the tubing and file a couple of notches in the tubing/pillar so that the epoxy will hold the pillar a little better. You can file notches in the tubing by chucking the tubing up in a drill press or hand drill and using the edge of a file while the drill is running' three or four notches and they don't have to be that deep. MAKE sure that when you screw the floor plate into place, you have a good amount of release agent on the floorplate so that it releases when the epoxy is hardened. And.....you don't have to jack the screws down hard while the epoxy is hardening, just enough to hold things together. [/QUOTE]
