[pianotech] Fwd: Erwins key dip gauge

[Richard Brekne]

Hi Dale...

I thought I answered this already... perhaps I misunderstand exactly 
what your question is.  After bedding and leveling, I use a standard 10 
mm key dip block to do a rough setting of key dip, then do as good a 
regulation as I can, then refine key dip to achieve as even an 
aftertouch as I can. I like to double check letoff-drop and jack/rep-arm 
orientation as I go along in this aftertouch refinement. Sometimes a 
small adjustment in one of those is whats called for instead of a slight 
change in the dip.

I dont actually "measure" per se as I think I understand your query at 
all.  Perhaps if you described what YOU do I might better understand 
what you are getting at.

Cheers
