</BLOCKQUOTE></FONT><FONT COLOR="#000000" FACE="Geneva" FAMILY="SANSSERIF" SIZE="2">The use of heated cauls, and the KBI may account for the difference. I don't like to heat the felt, since that kinks the fibers and hardens it. These bushings are quite loose when I pull the larger, cold cauls out, but within a day or so, they have returned to their normal dimension and the keys feel great. I bush fairly tightly here at the school, since within a semester, everybody has clearance. <BR>
