Ed Foote Wrote: --- big snip --- "The point I guess I didn't make clearly is that on a performance instrument, the cost of repair is sometimes more than that of replacement, so pinning balanciers on an action that has could also use total repinning, as well as new capstan pads and all the springs lubed, etc, is the more expensive way. Why not replace them?" The above assumes that you get new parts with nice even pinning. Where do you get yours? David M. Porritt, RPT dporritt at smu.edu
