I believe we may have lost them in a similar parallel universe (probably a lot of "singles" socks there, too!). Problem I find with these solid teflon parts is that I can't seem to get the darned flange to move in a fluid motion. It's *jerky*! How the heck are you supposed to measure friction when breaking inertia is half of the battle!? Someone probably posted something similar to this already, and in my half-attention I've overlooked it. Forgive the repetition if I'm repetitive.... Ron Torrella Check out The Piano Page at: Asst.
