In contemplating a brass rail conversion job on a turn-of-the-century Kimball upright, the thought occurred to me: why not use Billings flanges? Since wooden flanges require a different type of hammer butt and, therefore, all the work needed to change the butts, this could be a big time/cost saver. Has anyone tried this idea or can think of any pitfalls? Tom -- Thomas A. Cole RPT Santa Cruz, CA
