Good ideas Michael and Brad! Although it seems like you would need to take them off to clear out the glue and then put them back on. Brad is that a brace indexing pin in the foreground?

Pat,

I actually tip the brace into place so there's only cleanup on one side, the side away from the bridging. I clean up the squeezout and move to the next brace. I tip the next brace into place and bridge from the previous brace, then clean it up. Pretty quick, clean, and easy..

You gonna get a chance to head over here any time soon?

Best, M


Well, that's pretty ingenious about tipping them and only getting squeezz out on one side! I'll have to give that a try.

We are going to be on the canal for the next couple days, and there has been talk of Waterfront pizza. I'll give you a shout if we make it out your way.
