Yet another question, folks,

I had to repin all the Steinway shanks I recently installed.  When they =
came, they were the best examples of perpetual motion machines I had =
ever seen.  Well, golly, almost all of them have loosened up again!--not =
to their original state, but much looser than I find acceptable. (The =
piano got used a couple of times while work was in progress.)   Dang, =
I've never had this happen before---am I in the twilight zone?  I =
couldn't believe my eyes.  Would shrinking the cloth help before I =
pin....again?   Grrrr.

Also, I was surprised the first time I repinned to find that the center =
pins were all .052.  That seemed sort of big for original pinning.  I =
replaced them with .053.  Now I feel like I'm going to end up using =
telephone poles to get them right.  Here I thought I was almost done =
with this job and now this......  :-(

Help!

Barbara Richmond, RPT
