Hey, What do you good people use to determine how far capstans need to be moved? (I know how to determine when the ratio is correct.) I mean how do you physically measure how far the capstan has been moved? This is two sticks that slide against each other held together by heat-shrink tubing. The stud at left locates the existing capstan hole -- and the original capstan position when the sticks are aligned. The upper stick moves the faux capstan (which is also adjustable up and down, threads packed with teflon tape). The offset between sticks on the right can be measured and accurately represents the distance the capstan has been moved. Ballast could be added to duplicate the front weight of the key with its original capstan. So, what _should_ I be doing? 8^) Kent -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
