A few questions, one of which may rouse a bit of flame, but I'm getting
desperate.......  I got stuck with rebuilding a 100 year old S&C upright,
and don't actually have a shop.....  The stringing and key-work has been
sent out, but I'm left with the action.

1. Is there any reason NOT to hang bass hammers before I have the piano back
from restringing?  I have two samples already hung. Treble hammers look
pretty decent.

2. If, after attempting to align strings to hammers, a few are still not
"perfect" is it sort of legit to use heated shank bending pliars to align?
I don't think anything would have to move more than an eighth of an inch.

3. Is the old gummy paper tape, for traveling, still available?


Thanks
les bartlett
