[pianotech] Speed drying treated flanges

[Barbara Richmond]

Yeah, I've repinned plenty of actions, I'd just never done this shrinking thing before. Guess I've lived a very protected life...

Hey Barbara, 

Nice little set-up you have! It looks very worker friendly. Now if I could do the same with my shop ;>) (it's kind of messy right now!) 

If nothing eases after 24 hours...bummer...repin!

Hi all, 

I thought I had hit all these Wurlitzer/YC flanges with alcohol & water, but found when I started repinning the hammer flanges that there were still some pretty darn tight ones. Hmm. Maybe there's something wrong with my syringe technique or maybe these were super tight. Anyway, I really want to be done with this job, so I hit them again with the solution and have used my heat gun to help things along. Here are the questions, do I need to wait to repin, how long to I need to wait to repin, is there any special technique for speed drying treated flanges? 

BTW, here's a picture of my newly configured shoplette (the walkway through the laundry/furnace room). Thanks, Del, for suggesting the bench legs and shelves. It's a lot more comfortable working now. Oh yeah, the keyboard is on a board that I place over the laundry sink (double size) for extra counter space. 


Thanks,
