I don't like to heat the felt, since that kinks the fibers and hardens it. These bushings are quite loose when I pull the larger, cold cauls out, but within a day or so, they have returned to their normal dimension and the keys feel great. I bush fairly tightly here at the school, since within a semester, everybody has clearance. regards, Ed Foote RPT ************************************** Get a sneak peek of the all-new AOL at http://discover.aol.com/memed/aolcom30tour -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
