I actually did this work yesterday - I lined the slot with carbon fiber then epoxied in the reinforcement block.
This was one of the better inserts that I've done. Sealing the slot with a thin coat of epoxy and cooling it with a fan to counter the exotherm made the rest of the process almost easy.
The carbon laid flat and the block was just a few millimeters proud.
Today I used the Makita planer and got everything flush. Then I measured and marked the finbox lines. I didn't cut them out because I am hoping the vacuum attachment I ordered comes in. Even if it doesn't, I'll cut the finbox slots tomorrow and get the boxes epoxied in.
