[pianotech] agraffe leveling

[Porritt, David]

I have a few pianos here like that.  I've always speculated that the holes for the agraffes were not drilled perpendicular.

Subject: [pianotech] agraffe leveling

I was attempting to level the strings on a newer Yam C6 the other day.   According to Goss's leveling device, all the tenor agraffes were way off.   I tried pulling up the left string to level but couldn't make enough of a difference.   A bad batch of agraffe drilling?   I guess in this situation you have to fit the hammer to what you've got?
