"Acquit me of hidden faults" (King David of Israel) A hidden fault can create a big problem. A big THANK YOU to all who responded to my request for help. The key was indeed cracked right under the key button over the balance rail. I had even removed the key several times and not seen it. It is repaired, and the piano is working 100%. It even sounds good. It was a subtle crack. If you took the key out, it seemed normal. But if you grabbed both ends, you could make it act like a hinge. The key button was 2/3 firmly attached but loose on one end. It was enough to prevent the action from following through. I'm sure I will remember this repair the rest of my life, even if I never run into the same condition again. Again, thanks. You saved the day for me, and the customer is delighted. Arlie D.
