I use the plastic wire zip ties to tie one sticker to the guide rail in
3 to 4 places. It's easy, they're cheap, just cut them off when you are
done.

To quote the robot: "Warning, Mr. Smith, Warning."
 
If this is the action Joe describes here DO NOT remove sticker wires
from the guide bar or let them fall out-MAJOR pain to get them all back
you, AMHIK.
 
Do what he said, put damper blocks on several wires ABOVE the rail and
tighten the screws.

Ohoh. Is this the one with the wood rail with the stickers comming up
through it?
If it is you need 4 or 5 damper heads drilled out to, I think it is 1/8
inch.
You will capture the wire end of the sticker at the end of each section.
This one is easy but still look for the brace. It may be a rod.
Rough setting of lost motion can be done by adjusting the hight of the
sticker rail.
You will want to purchase a 12" long thin 1/8" screwdriver.

Hi Guys,
Came across a baldwin howard spinet with jack flanges that are comming
unglued. I want to pull the action, but it was designed in a way I have
yet to see.
Bolted to the plate-no struts, and these long flat metal pieces that are
screwed into the wooden platform under the action.
Anything I should be aware of other than the usual stuff? Also , will
the pianotek sticker holder work on this model?
Thanks,
RU/UP
