Hi Ricard:

I'm going to mention just one at a time the various field problems which
you wrote me about. You have given enough to keep us busy for quite awhile
and leave little time for jokes.

"When one replaces a Steinway tubular action rail (TAR), the angle could be 
easily diverted...What is the proper angle of rotation?" (slightly reworded)
And how would one insure that it stays right while soldering?

How about some of your experts who have actually done this? Could you please
elucidate? Do your build jigs to hold the brackets in place? How do you hold
the rails at proper elevation while soldering? Do the rails sag while the
solder is hot? Should we try to correct for improper action spread while we
are at it?
