Mark,
Actually this is a good question that need clarification.
Attached are some pictures of the new block installed. The one near the
pole ring is a big one--all others are small. The ones on the shock cord are
stacked with long screws.
Whenever putting screw into foam cores you should do the following.
1. Drill the holes about 1 1/2 times the size of the wood screw you'll be
using.
2. After drilling the holes, put some acetone on a q-tip and insert into
the holes to melt the foam back to approximately four times the diameter of
the
holes you drilled. It helps if you try to clean/scrape the glass skins in
the hole before going to the next step to ensure a good bond.
3. using a west system syringe, squirt a cream mixture of silica and epoxy
into the hole to fill them.
4. While still wet, set the block where they go and push the screws into
the epoxy and let set for a couple of day before using.
I hope this helps Mark
Bram
