I've been taking them (regular felt balance rail punchings form pianotek) one by one and hammering them on the concrete shop floor before installing. This obviously compresses and I don't think that rethicken enough to be concerned." Bob Hull, Ron's idea is a good one. Another is to get 4" long x 1/2" diameter = dowel; drill a hole in one end, of sufficient length; sand it nice and = smooth. Put the desired punchings on the key frame. Make sure the frame = is firm to the bench. One whack with a dead blow hammer per punching, = does it for me. Since I've been doing it this way, I don't have to waste = time "threading" the various punchings on a rod/taking them off the rod, = etc. One of Murphy's laws is that you'll be out of the ones, on the rod, = that you need.<G> I must say I'm not too keen on the shop floor = thingee!<G> Best Regards, Joe Garrett, R.P.T.
