Hi,

The wippen came in for tha tSchwander action.  It matches up great size wise, but the wippen flanges are a little different.  the original one has a deeper knotch and the screw hole is not counter sunk.  The new one has a smaller knotch and the screw hole is counter sunk.  I'm guesing I may have to take the original wippen flange and put it on the new wippen so that it will grab onto the rail correctly.  Am I correct in this observation?  I could have ordered one for a Wood Bead Rail.  Is this a anme given to a rail or a type of material a rail is constructed of wood verses metal?  I've been flamed for asking stupid questions on here, won't mention their name, but even though I've had intense training, it still wasn't possible to see every action available out there in two years, but I am thinking I'll have to change flanges non the less. I'm just curious as to what a wood bead rail is whether it's a name given to one or one made of wood verses metal.   Thanks

Marshall
