<HTML> <HEAD> <TITLE>Re: [CAUT] Pulley keys.</TITLE> </HEAD> <BODY> Hi Roger,     So you are actually using the PVC-E as a gap-filler= to a large extent, judging from the pic and your description. I guess that = makes sense, as it has enough flexibility/spring when dry to keep from being= noisy, like, say tite-bond (how would I know that?)     Love those felt knuckles. Those were the good old d= ays <g>. Actually, they were maybe a bit better than the rock-hard cow= hide ones. Depending what problem irritates you more.

Use a set of balance rail pins,  Mix 50% PVC-E glue with 50% water. Sw= ab hole, insert pin from the top of the key, swab around bottom of key to fo= rm a meniscus around pin.  Allow 24 hrs to dry.  Pin will be froze= n in position.  Rotate pin one turn, and it will slide out. Hole will be sized tp perfection. This piano was a 70's Steinway L with the felt knuckles.  All 88 had b= een over sized to try and solve friction problems.  What a mess.
