---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Patrick, that I believe is a Woods & Brooks action. I see damper levers for it but not jacks, so you probably can, but I would get one out and compare lengths to be sure you don't have regulation problems. Measure both from the center pin to the top and from there to the bottom of the flange as well as overall length. You may have to modify either to have it fit right. Some of these strange beasts had extra long flanges that are not available now, but you can lengthen a flange by cutting a lap joint and glueing extra wood on the bottom then duplicating the guide slots in the new wood. Actually, it would be better to cut the slot first and adjust the length at the lap joint. Use a neighbor part as your guide. Cut it to shape with a hobby razor saw, dremel tool or utility knife. Hope this helps. Warren Patrick Greene wrote: > Hey guys and gals, I just worked on a Everette console circa 1946.
