If the two adjacent keys were not there, could you square and level it? =
In other words, is binding at the rear of the key what is keeping you =
from lining things up in front? If so, you might be able to reshape the =
rear of the key enough to make it work. You could even plug and redrill =
for the capstan if needed.

  List,

  I tuned a Baldwin Hamilton today that has a twisted or warped white =
key.  It can't be leveled with the others or squared.  The front of the =
key is twisted compared to the back.  When you set it on a flat surface =
you can really see the twist - the front left corner of the  key is up =
in the air about 1/8".  I know sometimes you can force a wedge into a =
kerf cut into a key that is bent or warped, but it doesn't seem like =
that would work on this twisted key.  I would appreciate your =
suggestions. =20

  Bob
