Well my binding post suggestion comes from our Biomedical engineer who fixes everything that comes his way.
I was worried about the strength of the lens board reducer sliding strips which are held in by 3/8" no 6 screws on my Deardorff, I was really worried with the heavy older portrait lens teetering out in front. The sleeves and bolts replacements are like a rock now.
Fact is though, all of these suggestions work and work well if done properly.The choice is yours.
