The perpetrator: 1920s S&S D in private home (da purrfesser's) The complaint: intermittent damper pedal squeak. The background: Beautifully rebuilt inside and out, and generally lives up to all the hype S&S has ever promulgated. Unsuccessful attempts to squelch: -determined that noise was _not_ internal. -checked adjusting nut on rod -inspect, lube and tighten pedal plate (that one in pedal box on underside of pedal lever) -lube pedal rod socket -lube rod and guide bracket -lube leather on trapwork arm -remove and lube trapwork arm -remove and lube pitman -removed lyre and tightened attachment plate screws -tightened cam screw Still squeaked. Where was it? (yes, I did determine the cause) Answer tomorrow.
