I'm going to be pillar bedding my TR today and was worrying if the factory metal will be fine

I to have been considering this.Would you take some pics of your work if you can.What are you using for pillars.My DIP metal is far and away better than my factory metal although I had the tupperware stock on my FV-SR.Dont know if your metal is as flimsy as mine.

I'm on my way to pick up some solid aluminum bar stock from a metal place here local. 6in for a whopping $5. I plan on using jb weld as well. Yes my bottom metal was flimsy. I talked to a gunsmith just now and he said since it will be pillared it won't matter the bottom metal size.

Great. wish you much success on this.I'm on the fence about trying it. Just not any wood on that front screw area.Be interested in seeing what you do.

I'm going to drill the wood to fit my 1/2in pillar then jb weld the pillar in after getting proper height.
Here are some examples
