<p align="left"><br/><font face="sans-serif" size="2">Hi gang,</font> <br/><br/><font face="sans-serif" size="2">This summer I'm rebuilding the action on our 1956 Baldwin D using Renner shanks/flanges and wippens. I'm also, per your previous reccommendations, trying Ronsen-Wurzen hammers for the first time. I have some time before summer arrives to "prep" the parts, weigh off the shanks, check pinning, etc. My question is; What sort of pre-voicing should be done with these hammers? Do they require pre-filing, juicing, needling etc.? They're already bored, tapered and tails shaped nicely.</font> <br/><br/><font face="sans-serif" size="2">Thanks for any input!</font> <br/><br/><font face="sans-serif" size="2">Paul T.
