              This works on the slips that screw in from the bottom of =
the keybed:     Bend the middle screws a few degrees @ the point above =
the keybed. I do this with vicegrips and pliers then reinsert the screw. =
The slip will rotate as it tightens. Just stop when it is pitched away =
from the keys and tight to the bed. If this doesn't give you enough =
clearance  consult Del's fine post on moving the holes etc.  =20
