[CAUT] Thumping Baldwin SF

[Joe And Penny Goss]

Hi Jim,
If you tap the base where the (key bed) action lies sometimes that area will
ring like a drum.

I've had luck with Crescendo punching.

Jon, you covered the glides?? Were they knocking or something? (I'm
certainly not questioning you're abilities, but this sounds a little weird.
Explain?)

Regards,
Jim Busby

I had this thumping noise on an L from the '70's. Replacing the impacted
front rail punchings did not quiet it enough for the player.

I ended up covering the bearing areas on the bottom of the key frame
and glides with bushing cloth.
