Keith:
 
I used a global term instead of the details.
 
To re-pattern the bridge scale would involve a new cap and creation of a  
corrected template of the pin pattern. This is, indeed, "fairly involved".

Paul,

You correctly assess the situation from the  pic
despite my inadequate words.

I don't understand the  process you mention "re-patterning",
but that sounds fairly  involved. I am looking for the possibility
of addressing this  issue in the piano.

The only problem is, I am extremely incompetent  when attempting
to relocate a single bridge pin on a piano  having tried
already once on another Steinway  D.
