Andre's Front Punchings vs Schimmels

[Jurgen Goering]

Quite a number of high end shops, rebuilders and institutions use 
Crescendo Front Rail Punchings, many of them exclusively.  Typically, 
techs will order one set, then after a while, two more.  Then, 
silence...  Then the next order is half a dozen sets or a big bag of 
1000 punchings.  The demand is such that they are sometimes back 
ordered, like right now for example.  Don't fret though, more are on 
their way.  It just takes a while because the factory makes up the felt 
sheets on demand and then punches them out.  They do not stockpile 
them.

To date, there were two instances, including Kent's, where someone 
found the punchings too firm.  All the other feedback from techs and 
players alike has been along these lines:

I will soon be adding a second thickness of  Crescendo Balance Rail 
Punchings, and I have plans to introduce special new regulating 
punchings to complement the whole system, later this year.
