Does anyone have a foolproof way to locate the inner ears when replacing. I removed mine some time ago (it was pretty well butchered) and now I need to figure out how to get it in the correct location. I have tried measuring the other side but the process of hand measuring seems fraught with inaccuracies. Additionally it doesn't fully consider the location of the outer perch.
Does someone make a jig? |

I don't know if anyone makes a jig, but this is how I did it (see post 79):

This is what we finished today for the left side.
I'll put Super In Law on it tomorrow. Could we create a lighter weight jig for locating only ? Hmmmm.  |
