Were those the ones where the hammer tails were shaved on either side to a diagonal shape, so they could be twitched straight by the people installing them, instead of being really fitted? So they don't have enough contact surface in there, and they could sag before the glue set up unless they were carefully watched. (On piece work? -- I theorize -- who would have time to do that?)
