On Balwin grands there is a neoprene O ring that runs between the damper trap lever and the damper board block. The only purpose of this O ring that I can determine is to keep the damper dowel in place should the pedal lyre be removed. I worked on an "R" yesterday where this O ring was missing. Being as I don't carry an O ring supply with me all I could replace it with was the heavier rubber band that comes on the Sunday paper which probably won't last very long. Does anyone know the correct thickness and diameter of this O ring? Thanks in advance, John Fortiner -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
