Hi gang,

This summer I'm rebuilding the action on our 1956 Baldwin D using Renner 
shanks/flanges and wippens.  I'm also, per your previous reccommendations, 
trying Ronsen-Wurzen hammers for the first time.  I have some time before 
summer arrives to "prep" the parts, weigh off the shanks, check pinning, 
etc.  My question is; What sort of pre-voicing should be done with these 
hammers?  Do they require pre-filing, juicing, needling etc.?  They're 
already bored, tapered and tails shaped nicely.

Thanks for any input!
