[CAUT] Hammer Alignment

[Jon Page]

I stopped using hot hide glue a few years ago, too high of a failure rate.
Even when mixing with distilled water. I've been using Bolduc.

I only spin one or two rotations and 'rock' it into position. I don't have
the good fortune of hitting alignment first off, so there is some back
and forth rotating of the hammer so that should relieve the 'imparted
torsional forces'.

Also, why doesn't the bass section twist. It's mostly the top two treble
sections and with a few in the tenor. Misalignment doesn't occur within
the first days weeks or months.
