Ron is right.  It is a growing action bracket problem. Call Young Chang. =
 Hope you can get the action out.

  I've read most of the books but this is a new one on me.  Several keys =
(probably 12 or so) in the midrange can't be depressed.  The inside of =
the hammer "tail" sticks against the back of the wippen.  So the hammer =
is incapable of rising unless you pull the hammer up with your hand.=20

  Being a relative newbie as a piano tech, I'm wondering what the fix =
is.  Take a file and file the back of the wippen?  Take a Dremel tool =
and sand off part of the hammer so it doesn't rub?  Reglue the offending =
hammers, making the shanks 1/64 longer? =20

  Just curious to know if any of you "Been there, done that, got the =
T-shirts" have seen this before?
  Toodles,
