I guess you could use the packing as a template however I figured it was safer to fill the existing screw holes with a bit of toothpick, sealed with some super glue and re set the machine head locator hole using a drill attachment for a power screwdriver (and a little duct tape as a depth gauge) !

It is very important to make sure you get everything strait as wonky tuners looks silly (boy do I know about that !!) !


Thanks Doc. I agree that the reamer would be probably do a better job keeping the peg hole centered. Looks like I better give myself enough time for this little project!
