String spacing

[Jerry Hunt]

In the continuing saga of my first major overhaul of a piano (note the
avoidance of the "R" words), an old upright, I've got all of the strings
installed - not too bad for a first time effort (no, you can't see it) -
have chipped 5 or 6 times, tapped the strings down at the hitch pin and
bridge pins (no, I didn't use anything metallic for this part), spaced
strings.

Regarding the string spacing, the screws on the pressure bar weren't
placed as strategically as they could have been, and for a number of
notes, mostly in the tenor section,  the pressure bar screw occupies
part of the space that otherwise would be occupied by the left string of
the tri-chord. Consequently, these tri-chords have very narrow spacing,
but not touching, at the v-bar. So, my question is, would you leave it
that way? I will be replacing the hammers, so string spacing vis-à-vis
hammer grooves is not a problem.  As always, thanks for your help.
