Too bad on your wing hole issue... I'm sure that's a bit of an annoyance. Good luck on the correction with that.

I have run into that issue in the past regarding a narrow LG slot. You can use a wire of the same diameter, or even the gear you plan on using, to make a tool. Sharpen the end with a file or grinder and use it to chisel away the extra wood. You end up with a nice tight fit.
