Greetings list. To answer Calin's question about ivory removal: I use an ordinary household iron (not the one from home!) and a well soaked cloth. Place the wet (but not dripping of course) cloth over the key top and apply the hot iron for a few seconds. this will soften the glue without damaging the ivory.
