Mattman Posted November 19, 2007 Report Share Posted November 19, 2007 First...you shouldn't have had to buy a new set of guides. You should have been able to reuse the original set. Second...the spine is irrelevant at this point unless you are completely redoing the handle as well. The handle is orientated to the spine as well as the guides.
