Hi Paul,
I have not tried this lig with plastic reeds,will do so sometime in the future.
Just 2 more details about this lig :
You can turn it upside down and you will have the top notches of the plate just as in normal ligs, on the top bark part of the reed not the scraped one .The bottom notches, will lie on the bottom part of the bark, as in standard ligs.. I found that in this manner a "new" sonority is available. Of course everything is very subtle and perhaps phsycological...
This will leave the tightening screw for your left hand, but you can easily unmount and invert the plate, and the screw will then be on your right hand side, should you wish to make this change.
Re the 2 bumpers ,they will need from time to time , to be supplemented with extra material. You can easily cut this out of a mpce patch and superglue it to whatever lies below, In this way NO marks or identations will be suffered by mpce. and slipping is avoided. I do not recommend 3M plastic tape on the mpce, this will certainly make the lig slip and a gluey mess will certainly occur(!)
Best
