I remember that saga, Eric. Hugh did a great job restoring its integrity, with naught but an invisible repair joint. You may have helped his success if you sent it directly to him for help instead of trying something at home--there's not much worse job than fixing someone else's unsuccessful "repair." If someone's previous tracks need to be covered, it can take 2X the work, and also sometimes 10X the skill!
