I put super glue in the holes and they seem to be doing okay.  If that didn't work, I thought about inlaying a chunk of oak.

Matte, I am coming into some zither pins, how are they holding up, for string tension, in pine. Thanks for any input.

I'll post a video as soon as I get one tune down well. 

 

Also, I need to reverse the wires on the jack because when I touch the strings the I get a hum through the amp.  I usually wire piezos one direction, but if the strings are grounded I have to wire them opposite.  I forgot to do that.  One thing that's nice is that with the little candy tin resonator it actually has a little bit of volume without being amped.
