    Quoted from pinzrfun:

    I put an overlay on my Strikes and Spares (first time). Put new rollover inserts in last night, and one of the holes must have had a tiny bit of old glue in one little spot because the insert is sitting up about 1/16". If that wasn't bad enough, it kinda pushed up a little bit of the overlay (it wasn't 100% dead nuts on all of the holes, apparently). I dry fit a couple of them before I epoxy'd them in because I was concerned about this, and there was enough clearance in the hole that they fit fine. Maybe I didn't push this one straight down or something.

    Missed your first attempt, second one looks fantastic.
    Something I do when I replace inserts, run the proper size Forster bit in each insert hole just a tad. Makes sure to remove any remaining insert and/or glue left behind.

    Looking forward to your re-assembly, one of my favorite games here.
