The installation of these springs as I understand it is such that two beams are used as a support for a piece of something or another that will hold the spring tight against the panel / ribs at some point. What would be the advantage or disadvantage of mounting a stronge enough piece of steel lengthwise parallel to the beams and attach at the rim and back side of the keybed / case area instead ? Or is this another one of these parcealip trees to bark under ? RicB Delwin D Fandrich wrote: Del: The springs you mentioned in your April 2001 note. McMaster Carr, 4 inch compression springs. I don't have the part number at hand, but I will later in the day -- if that matters. No, I was just curious. Good luck. I'm looking forward to reading about your results.
