This set of pictures will be augmented in the future with some others illustrating where certain noises come from in that termination. The whole point is that each agraffe, new or old, needs to be consistently treated to polish the termination into a true curved shape, although it is impossible to duplicate a fine capo shape with the offset towards the counterbearing segment. Some agraffe sets in better made pianos are in fact canted toward the singing length to create that offset.
