loose/tight flanges

WIm,
Here is an idea inspired by what Mark Cramer had mentioned some time ago.
Remove the action stack from the keyframe, get your upright action holder (
the one made by APSCO) and install the stack on it. You can now rotate the
stack anywhere you want. Works great for both shanks and wippens. One extra
benfit  is while working on the wippen centers you can easily spot wippens
that are parrallel to each other. That gives a good hint if they need
travelling as well.

I know how to correct the problem, but is there an easier way, other than
taking each of them off the rail one at a time, to check the tightness of
grand hammer flanges? Or, for that matter, the wippen flanges?
