[CAUT] Key Spacing: The Distal End

[Jim Busby]

Alan,
What kind of piano is it? Schimmel had problems with some laminated keys a few years back. They will replace them.

Subject: [CAUT] Key Spacing: The Distal End
When spacing (i. e., bending) the portion of the key between the balance pin and the distal end (where the lifter felt is) is indicated, does anyone have a technique that works particularly well for them?  We are experimenting with heat alone (which we have found to be extremely slow-going, so far) and with steam (more rapid results, but harder to contain than heat without all that moisture in it).  Thoughts?
