Cy asked: " why are those =3D
jacks made in two pieces to begin with?  Is it just so they can fail in =
=3D
a repairable way if regulation is off (too much aftertouch)?"

Cy,
Being the maker of obsolete action parts, I can say the Jack is the most =
difficult item to make. (just close your eyes and try to imagine how =
that configuration is cut!) It's made that way, because it's better, IMO
BTW, I hope you are prepared to replace those jacks, as in fairly soon, =
as CA doesn't last very well in Stress applications. Please don't do =
that anymore. I don't care if it is in some PTG manual.....it's a bad =
way to repair something like that! Especially in a high end piano! =
Yikes!
