et al;
 I have a Chickering about ready to go home and all the tuning is 
breaking/making worse the brass whippen/wippen/repetition lever flanges. You 
know the little cracks that develop in the pin holding groove :-(.  
There were no broken or loose flanges before I started tuning.

  If my understanding is correct these particular flanges are not 
available...right?
Question: Has anyone ever tried "silver soldering" these thingees?   Think it 
would work?
