>>> "Louis Aull" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 12/24/2007 9:04 am >>> John et al. I trained a while with an "old school" violin maker. We would put the dried soap (old bar of Zest) on the peg, roll it in the hole to deposit the soap in the hole as well, and then us a a piece of blackboard chalk to "write" a bit of chalk on the friction areas of the peg. This method also helped "fill in" any low spots on the peg. Merry Christmas. Lou Aull
