Now What?

[Vanderhoofven]

I have been working recently on a 1895 Kranich and Bach upright with double 
flanges connecting the hammer butt and the damper lever.  The screw holding 
the flange in place has a brass washer that makes about three complete 
spirals.  When the screw is tightened,  it will be a very long time before 
it comes loose because of the washer being compressed.  I think it is a 
good idea.  The lock washer, that is, NOT the double flange!
