For those wanting to try thinned shanks they are available from Wally 
Brooks.  Kawai doesn't have the corner on them.  Check out the diameter 
of a shank from 1900 versus a shank from 1980.  Did they know something 
back then we have over analyzed today?

For those wanting to try thinned shanks on already installed 
shanks/hammers it is pretty easy and takes about two hours.

     I've used many sets of these already & found them very good. I lke the 
fact that if you order a S&S type part with a 16.5 knucle placement that the 
centerpin hasn't been moved forward as some other brands of parts have been so 
the action spread stays the same & it truly is just a knuckle relocation.
