I have never doubted your integrity, only some of the views you presented on this subject. >...the "personal experience" kind ??... Yes. I live by it. >Perhaps you could refer me to some documentation ?? Don't have any. >...Well.... at least I am in good company. grin. Or do we ignore the >opinions of the >likes of Jim Coleman, who started off this side of the argumentation ??... Being fully aware of Senior Coleman's status in the piano service community does not constitute blind allegiance on my part when an error in judgement has been rendered. Even he is not immune to being incorrect about something as he would readily admit. >...but have you ever taken real torgue readings ?? If your definition of real means with a mechanical gauge such as a type used in automobile mechanics, then the answer is no. >...dont know whether or not you mean that or not... I meant it! That was a marvelous interchange on Pianotech that led to a terrific conclusion. >Nice playing ball with you Keith. Ditto. >Richard Brekne >I.C.P.T.G.

Got to visit with Larry Caldwell, RPT, who just happened to have his picture with some others from the Nebraska Chapter published on page 52 in the October 1999 issue of the Piano Technicians Journal. >have been a Huskers fan as long as I can remember..
