Our Baldwin D here in Pacifica, CA has those same parts.   It sounds real nice.

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!
