If, after the glue dries, they are not straight up and down at impact. You don't want the hammer to be rotated off vertical when it impacts the string or you can stress the action centers and force yourself to have to file the striking surface other than 90 degrees to the molding.

David Ilvedson, RPT Pacifica, CA 94044 _____ Original message From: "Tom Servinsky" To: "Pianotech List" Received: 3/5/2008 5:48:28 PM Subject: Molding & Trim glue List, Just a quick thank you to those who suggested using Titebond Trim & Molding glue for hanging hammers. I installed a set of hammers last evening and can't tell you how delighted I was with this glue. I was especially happy to find out that I didn't have to burn-in any shanks the next day after the glue settled. Again, thanks for the suggestion.
