M&H console/damper spoon problem

[Tom Servinsky]

Call me at 561 260 7110  and I will talk you through the whole process. With
the proper jig ( cost  a whopping $2.75) you can do the whole procedure in
less than 5 minutes.  Once you get visual picture of regulating damper
spoons outside of the piano,the job is quite easy...and painless.  Other
than making some critical measurements, the whole procedure is done outside
of the piano.  You'll find this procedure particularly useful with future
action reconditioning jobs, as you can include a damper spoon regulation
with total ease.  The improvement in touch ,especially from a consistency
point of view, is quite noticeable.  You'll be a hero time and time again!!!
