I think it is indeed the screw holes in the rail.  For fun, I just screwed 
in the screws with no wippen on these 3 samples I took off.  Well, what do 
you know...the screws are at different heights! 

Is there a way to remedy this, or am I stuck.  Is this a replaceable part?

Hi gang! 

I'm puzzled!  I'm now working on a 1966 Steinway M with a strange thing 
going on.  I looked and the wippens and they're all askew and not in any 
kind of even line on the brass rail. Some places, they're nearly 2mm off. 
I tried to attach a picture, but it was too big. I'm still getting used to 
my new camera and iMac (having been a life-time PC guy).   

I checked the wips themselves, and they're all good.  I can't "see" 
anything off on the brass rail, but only took off 3 wips in a row to check 
the rail out. 

Have any of you ever come across this?  I've got a message out to our tech 
support guy about the picture, but perhaps you know what I'm describing. 

Thanks for any help. 

Paul
