This is a question I <i><span style='font-style:italic'>should =
</span></i>know
the answer to but I don't. :-( Is there a way to tilt the wippen so it =
will sit
correctly on the capstan without disturbing the jack tender/let-off =
button
alignment? Considering the shape of the Steinway flange. <br>
<br>
I put a set of wippens on an 'L' yesterday and the jack tender alignment =
was
WAY off on a lot of the notes, so I corrected that without thinking to =
check
the wippen to capstan position. A few were so far off that they were =
even
hanging up on the adjacent wippen. They're not TOO bad now but there are
several I'd like to be able to make sit more correctly on the capstan. =
I'm
assuming that would be more important than an exact tender alignment =
wouldn't
it? <br>
I <i><span style='font-style:italic'>really </span></i>don't want to =
have to go
back with the old teflon bushed wippens! :-) <br>
<br>
The new ones are the wippens with the rep spring adjusting screw.<br>
<br>
Anyway, it was like the entire let-off rail was positioned somewhat =
incorrectly
because eveything I traveled was to the right (looking at the screws). =
Many as
much as 3-4 mm of travel paper. <br>
<br>
I even went back and checked the old wippens and they seemed to be =
centered
fairly well without nearly as much traveling as I had to do. <br>
<br>
I've never had this much of a problem with this before and just wondered =
if
anyone might have any thoughts on the reason(s) for this. Thanks. <br>
