Hi Larry,as was pointed out?(good ideas)Thanks,another is to flatten the end of the needle,bend end of needle (3/16,) 90 degrees,using a small tri-angle file cut through the inside of the flattened needle just enough for a little glue to come out,draw the flat side along the inside of plank leaving a thin bead of glue on top of plank.works very well,If you see my point (ha).you are a fine modeler,keep up the good work,Edwin
