Gawd Almighty there.... looks like you have a no loose situation on your
hands there.

List,
Thought some of you might like to see these pics. I just finished
plugging over 400 holes(I know that key replacement should have been
considered, but it is not possible for this customer), and that was
after I left what I hope to be a basic starting weight pattern in
the keys. I just weighed the leads that came out. To be honest, I
was a little dissappointed they only weighed 15 pounds. Oh well.
I would be interested, though, to find out where that stands as far
as bragging rights go.
Oh. The key weighing was part of an S&S "B" rebuilding 10 years ago
that included Renner Blues on shanks with a 16mm pin to knuckle
measurement, pinblock replacement without glueing it in or fitting
it to the flange and also pushed the plate back to shorten #88 to
about 46 mm, delignit block with VERY tight pins and coils 10 to 12
mm above plate. This piano is just a joy! :-(
Back to the grindstone.
