---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment (Off list) Hey Phil, The copy is from a thick bound book (full year of the Clavier), and I=20 found it difficult to get the type near the crease to be legible when=20 copied full sized because of the way I had to hold the book. So, I did=20= an 11x17 reduction to 8.5x11, and the crease problem wasn't as bad. I=20= can read it fine, but the print is fairly small and I don't know if it=20= would fax clearly or not. I would have done full size 11x17, but the=20 copier in the library isn't capable of it, and you can't take this book=20= out of the library. Also, there are two-page characteristics to the=20 article (title spreads, action diagram, etc), and it looks better in=20 the reduced, or two page format. It'll take me a while, but I could type the text for you. It is a=20 rather long article. Or I can play around with the copier machine to=20 see what I can get it to do. The article is very good with a few exceptions. I don't agree with a=20 few of his statements so far, particularly in regard to damper=20 regulation. He doesn't like the dampers to begin to lift before 1/2=20 hammer travel. He says the extra weight makes the keys sluggish. I=20 believe that if the damper contact is that late in the key stroke it=20 contributes to control problems due to the extra bump in the key. It=20 is particularly cumbersome if the damper contact and escapement are=20 back to back "obstacles" near the end of the key stroke. I'd prefer it=20= happen around the first 1/3. I can live with up to 1/2, but not beyond=20= that. Other than that, and perhaps another questionable service tactic or so,=20= it is a very useful article for the piano owner. I'll see if I can get it to you soon in some legible form. Jeff On Wednesday, March 3, 2004, at 01:53 PM, Phil Romano wrote: > Jeff, > =A0 > If you copied it, could you post it or fax it to me?
