Spurlock's tail Arcing jig can be modified to accommodate the shanks. Just
grind down the front part of the Jig that gets in the way.

Anyone have any slick methods for arcing hammer tails on a set that are
already mounted on their shanks? I have, use, and like the Spurlock tail
arcing jig, but the hammer/shank assembly will not fit into the jig. 

 

This work is being done on an older good condition Baldwin grand action that
someone installed new hammers a few years ago, but did not arc the tails.
They are kinda squared-off. They do not check well and they are attacking
the new backchecks. The piano owner is not interested in a new action, but
rather to just try and make this one work reasonably well.

 

Thanks for any suggestions.
