It may be that the back rail cloth was built up too high = (rather than it being too low). It's possible that you may want to = lower the balance rail punchings (if there is enough thickness there) = after lowering the back rail cloth. That would also change the = capstan/wippen center convergence line. You might consider checking the = damper lever convergence as well as the capstan/wippen center = convergence. If the damper lever is picking up above the line and the = capstan is above the line at half blow, then lowering the back rail = cloth would be in order.=20 David Love In a message dated 7/6/2002 6:25:51 AM Pacific Daylight Time, = jonpage@attbi.com writes: Jon Page writes Otherwise, I'm looking at lowering the key height by 1/4".
