Billy,
I think going with the 3/4" stud might be the way to go. I should have done a test-run with a plain screw before deciding on length.
I know these things are expensive but if the longer ones work it'll be worth it.
Has anyone tried using the Korkers lug sole as opposed to the felt for screwing into? The ones that come w/ the Cross-Current and Guide Boot?

BTW, with all the above said, the boots with studs is a HUGE improvement over wearing Korkers sandals over boots without studs. It just needs tweaking.

Again, thanks for your help. I really appreciate it.
Andrew
I'm getting ready to load my new ultralights and was wondering how the epoxy worked out? Did it help?
