    Any body know of a source for replacement oak blocks and mounting pads for the panel trucks? I see a lot of them for the pickups but not for the panel trucks. :(

    mounting blocks...

    a chunk of oak from an old pallet, and a table saw.
    They cant be all that difficult,, just cut to the proper dimension and drill the hole.
    Save yourself some $$$$$

    mounting blocks

    I decided to do my own, because I wanted to try it with more rubber inbetween....so what I did was...I had about 1 inch rubber pads(maybe horse pads???) and I cut them and reduced the block of wood. It sure made me feel better, but that might just be a placebo effect. But it is done!

    There's another good idea. Thanks for chiming in and letting us in on that one. :)
