Hello Joseph,

I am glad you saw some similar piano actions. But did they also have that
repetition device? The small wooden "shoe" connected to a spring to the
right of the jack? See:

I have seen several diagrams of single escapement English actions and none
had this feature.
I would like to ask a German tech (or better, Austrian - the piano is
Viennese), but I don't know any. Do you?

Thanks for your help,


Calin Tantareanu
