Hipshot bridge on my Epi Thunderbird

Remove the bridge, take the insers out, coat the walls of the holes with a thin layer of epoxy, press inserts in, clean any epoxy away with cloth soaked in rubbing alcohol. Let cure, reassemble.

If you can't press's the inserts.all the way in, gently tap them home with a hammer and a block of wood to prevent damaging the inserts.
