John - I don't think anyone has responded to your question. The butt insert felts can vary a lot from piano to piano. You would need to match up your materials to what you fin d in your particular case. There is usually one piece of cloth and one piece of felt involved. I carry action cloths and bushing cloths in a variety of thicknesses, as well as felts in various thicknesses and densities. Cutting the materials and getting the butts all uniform and consistent can be a challenge, but it can be done. Perhaps gang-clamping five or six butts and laying in strip instead of tiny pieces, and cutting apart later would achieve good results? I have not done it this way, but I would try it next time. hope this helps Jurgen Goering Piano Forte Supply (250) 754-2440 info at pianofortesupply.com http://www.pianofortesupply.com On Aug 24, 2007, at 11:00, John Delmore wrote: > > > Along the butt-piece lines...what is the proper type of cloth for the > butt undercloth?
