Well Ricardo,

Basically we use every first and last hammer of every section, but in the
last two treble sections it is better to make sample hammers i.e. try out
what kind of sound the new hammers give.
Once you're sure about the right position it is like what we say in
Amsterdam : "Kat in het bakkie" which means : cat on the litter box, which
means : the cat found the right spot and it is not going to bother you.

Get it?

OOr
