David, and David,

I will be at the Sacto convention and look forward to Don's class, which wil=
l=20
be especially helpful since I work on many Kawai pianos.

Texts do seem to be sparse.  Some of the texts I HAVE seen are a bit=20
circumspect in dealing with aforementioned specific needling areas, angles,=20=
and=20
depths, and they often disagree with each other, not to mention with the mor=
e=20
up-to-date things I read on this list and elsewhere.

Thanks for your responses,

Dave Stahl
