This was my case, didnt want to make the wrong choice first. And, yes I did go to Dons action center class but years ago, and no plastic was discussed. The big question here is what causes centers to become so incredibly loose. It must be some thing in the materials because you dont have a bushing shrink by 1/32, in the same spot throughout the piano, under normal use, oftern even in 100 year old instruments in our climate the bushings are too tight rather than too loose. I really dont think repinning is an option but I will report when I go back next week. -- ----Dave ----------------------------- Dave Doremus RPT New Orleans algiers_piano@bellsouth.net ------------------------------ ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
