George,
 
In my area, the keybushings get thighter when the humidity goes DOWN.
I've been caught doing bushings in the summer for shcools and then when
winter came they stuck...

Ben,

I have had the same experience  with turned front rail pins. The
immediate response appears to give excellent results, the key does feel
tighter,nicer to play and the keys are nicely spaced. However, my
experience has been that after some time these keys started  to stick,
humidity must have  come into play here and I ended up putting the pin
back basically to where it was. Maybe a new set of key bushings would
have been the safest fix.

 

Regards

George
