Hi John,
Pure metal to metal friction. The pins are only a 1/4" into a iron plate =
and the hole for the pin is oval with the pin nestling in the hole.  =
Binding both at the top and bottom.
To tune push in slightly on the tuning lever to raise or lower the pitch =
as you turn the pin.
Once the hole is worn out I have not heard of a way to repair that is =
really reliable.=20
The last one we had went to the dump. Beautiful old case but impossible =
to hold pitch.

  Can anyone describe how Wegman tuning pins work, how they are retained =
in the plate, and the technique for tuning them?
