Then punch them out with a punch and hammer. They are 1/8" x 1/8" if you care.

Now clean them with grease and wax remover so the contact cement will stick

Cut the mohair a little long and coat the backs with contact adhesive, I used left over DAP Landau Top cement.

Let it set 5 minutes, now fold a piece of paper in half then fold the mohair in half (glue out) and align it with the edge of the paper.

Now you can slide it in the channel and only need to worry about one side not touching before it get it bottomed out in the channel.

Use a paint stirring stick to press it down on the back of the channel and the side edge without the paper.

Now pull it away from the paper and slide the paper out and stick down the other side.
