[CAUT] Baldwin D bridge

Fred.

Though, seriously, a linked system, in addition to removing friction and making regulation more stable (no compression of wipp cushion felt), might also have an advantage in performance in that there would never be a gap created between key and wipp.
IF such a gap is ever created in a conventional action design (however momentarily), do you think it is more likely if the wippen is lighter or heavier?

	Though, seriously, a linked system, in addition to removing friction and making regulation more stable (no compression of wipp cushion felt), might also have an advantage in performance in that there would never be a gap created between key and wipp. Though I doubt that would ever happen anyway, it might be something that occurred to an inventor with more time than sense. I guess removing the compression of wipp cushion felt would make the action more "precise" in taking a flexibility parameter away.
