The job is done. One Firefly and one Flea now have Peghead tuners. I'm going to wait overnight to let the dab of glue set before I tune the ukes up.
The replacement was very easy to do, however I'll caution that =>
very<= little material needs to be removed. I used a wood reaming tool from the local hardware store. I chose that over a similar sized drill bit since the Pegheads are tapered and so is the reamer. You do want a tapered, not uniform, hole.
And please, let's not let this degenerate with comments over that last sentence.
Test fit the Pegheads before and during the job. You want the barrel end to barely reach the inside of the headstock. Oh, and have I mentioned that
*very* little material needs to be removed??? Again: Test fit. I found you should need to screw the Peghead tuner in that last little bit to get the Peghead to fully seat. Then back the tuner out, dab a bit of wood glue on the threads and reinstall. Remember: to screw the tuner in to seat it, it's Righty Tighty.
The slight downside I see is that the headstock is very slightly marred from the bushings using by the Grover (?) tuners originally installed. Suggestions for touching this up are appreciated. It's more noticeable on the walnut Firefly headstock (perhaps walnut veneer?).
I purchased the Pegheads here:
http://www.pegheds.net/index.html. I consider the prices and service very reasonable. IIRC the vendor is an inmate here.
