Jim-

Unhook the spring from the loop, then back off both regulating screws. You'll get about 8 degrees of free movement to feel or measure.

At least you will if I've pulled the right wippen from the trash box. Come on, it's a Baldwin. Just paint it with Zebra stripes or cover it with blue suede and get Elvis to sign the plate.

  List,

   

  How does one go about repinning the balancier in the Schwander (sp? On a Baldwin SD10) type Wippen? You can't eliminate the spring w/o removing it (unpinning). How do you measure gram weight?

   

  If proper pinning in the balancier is important, and I think it is, then my Baldwins here need it. Right?

   

  Thanks,

  Jim Busby BYU
