Hi All,
 
I spent a few hours cleaning, lining up parts, scoping out the way the  
action functions and re-tuning this Erard today.  The regulation is in  pretty 
sorry shape.  I plan to go back in 3 weeks to get at least a rough  regulation 
into it.  There's a website somewhere that shows all kinds of  wippens that I've 
lost the URL to.  Does anyone remember where that might  be?
 
I am curious if anyone on this list has detached the keys from the  
capstan/wippen assembly on these.  I suspect that there is a slot for one  or both pins 
to slide in and out of like on a spinet elbow, but I didn't want to  force 
anything before I have a clue.   
Any tips at all would be extremely helpful.  Est-ce que les Francais  ici 
peuvent m'aider?  Quentin, Stephane?

 
Lots of interesting things on this piano.  Leather key bushings for  the 
balance rail (didn't see the front rail).  The one thing I didn't  photograph was 
how the checks come right up through a long slot in the hammer  shank.
