Hello All: Chickering strikes again. I have a client with a Chickering Upright, the 67BB model, that uses an oddball leaf spring design on the pedals. Each pedal has two leaf springs, @51/4" long, with two screw holes at the butt end and a screw hole at the curved tip through which it is mounted to the pedal lever. The levers themselves run diagonally from the pedals up to the lift rods coming down from the action. Schaff does not carry anything like these. Anyone have an idea of where to find replacements, or have you had replacements made? I can't see how they could be converted without reengineering the whole trap assembly. Thanks forl your help.
