I've used chopsticks with thinner nails. I've done this with hollow doors with no problem. With a solid door, you might want to try putting some glue on the dowel before insertion. Just a thought...

Edit: meaningless! because My Post hasn't yet made it past the Yes/No/Maybe tri-state logic. Yet. (My Post does appear if the Top post is clickied--just not in forum main display. Yet.) Edit2: Heh.. now my original post re using epoxy + shims is gone, even after clickifying top post from main menu: and THIS one (opened to Edit) showed 2 edits--presumably one of those does have My Original Post? fwiw Edited by Ashton July 20, 2012, 06:57:02 PM EDT Edited by Ashton July 20, 2012, 07:00:11 PM EDT Edited by Ashton July 20, 2012, 07:04:16 PM EDT Expand All History
