Hi Wim,

Oh, but it does show that the plate _compresses_, quite nicely, but you really
have to have good measurements before and after, plot the differences and stare
at it a few seconds until you realize, ..., I never thought that it would work. 
Changing the tension on a piano does indeed compress or decompress the plate
struts.  Seeing the graph is the clincher.

Try it, you'll like, just like Mikie.

Be well and have a good weekend.
