INSTRUCTION
– Cut old shock mount above the wood with a saw under metal inlay (metal usual is at outer thirds).
You can use an oscillating multi-tool (also called vibration saw) to cut them roughly off, but also a hand saw.
– Then use a sharp wood chisel to remove the rest.
– Remove all rubber and old glue down to bare wood.
– Use rough sand paper to give the area a good grip for the glue.
– Don’t forget to degrease with Acetone (nothing else than Acetone!!) before gluing.
