Quoted from vid1900:Sometimes you find that an insert has "a mind of its own" and won't stay down for the epoxy to set.
There could be some tension in the wood (maybe the reason the insert popped out in the first place).
To fix this, we use a 12" C-clamp ($9 at Harbor Freight) to hold it from rising above the playfield surface.
Knock the edges off of 2 blocks of good quality (flat) plywood, and clamp with 2 pieces of wax paper (in case any glue squeezes out). Don't forget the wax paper, you won't be happy if you glue a piece of wood to the playfield....11.jpg 65 KB
How long do you have to leave the clamp on? I have a few to glue and only one c-clamp. I don't really want this to take 3 days but if I have to.. I will
. It did the job at 45PSI but I had to be careful and shot the paint from further away. Vid you transparent tray trick made my day. The yellow is matched at close to 98%. I think once the clear is on will be closer to 99%.
