reply to Susan on yamaha hmrs

[vanbrussel]

Because the Yamaha hammer has initially been treated with a hardening basis
(the colored basis of the hammer) and the Japanese (so I have learned from a
colleague who has been to Yamaha a couple of time never use steam but insted
always use needles).
I also remembr a mail here on this list saying that Japanese technicians
forbid steaming.
