Why don't you just send it to Mike Orlen and have him shim the hook. IMHO that is still the best, least invasive, cheapest way to go. I think it is nonsense to dovetail pieces into the hook. This reduces the structural integrity of the hook and requires a pretty damned good man with a file and micrometer --- both of which I happen to be. Dovetailing is complicating a very simple fix.
