    The April PTJ makes mention of "feeler gages" for key leveling, taking advantage of the key ratio, using 2 thickness of BR punching at the front of the key to determine which thickness of BR punching to use at the BR. I thought I might post the version of the multi-thickness feeler gage that I have used for several years:

    Nice! What type of glue do you use to glue everything together?

    Unfortunately I've never been an arts and crafts guy...

    Probably tiny amounts of molding glue (like Titebond Quick&Thick)
