 Ray at Ronsen Piano Hammer just sent me specific wood weights.  Thought =
you might be interested.

    Ray has a new light weight maple molding which is lighter than =
sapele.  I find this an advantage because with less wood weight I can =
use the 16 lb. felt which makes for a taller hammer especially in the =
octave 5&6.

   Be gone for few days. Be back weds.

    Blessed Easter to All
    Dale Erwin
