To: John McKone, RPT St. louis Park, Minnesota (612) 280-8375 Hi John, Seeing how I make a living reconfiguring actions, your problem is really quite simple. 1. Position the stack so that the strike point is hitting the string at the right point. 2. Position the capstan line and heels(cut off) so that the action ratio is compatable with the hammer weight. 3. Re-balance the keys with keylead. I believe that in the fall, Bob Marinelli and I will be teaching a one day seminar in Minneapolis on the subject of setting weight, leverage, and friction in piano actions. Hope you can make it.
