The first symptom that I have seen is blocking hammers. The metal action
brackets have swelled and you will waste your time to try to regulate.

Dean,
	Norm is right on with his post. Another clue is that the let off
dowels (Young Chang nomenclature?) will be falling off the threads from
trying to adjust-compensate for the blocking hammers.
	Checking can be way out of whack also.
	The brackets though dimensionally unstable will look just fine.
No cracking or any other visual abnormalities.
