Marshall, The dampers are very fragile. Put the action with the dampers up and you will for go a lot of headaches.

She was out of the country for a month and she finallygot back with me. The action is a drop action from a Winter spinet. Since I took the action back in October, yes this things been done and sitting in my basement for over a month. Since then we had to get a different car because the old suv we had died. So my question is will it be safe to lay this action on its back against the dampers in the trunk of this old Jetta we purchaased. NO I didn't want the Jetta, but it was cheap and someone a friend of our knew so sometimes price dictates. :-) So will this be safe for the action? Is there any chance of bending spoons or will they be OK? thanks Marshall Marshall Gisondi Piano Technician Marshall's Piano Service pianotune05 at hotmail.com 215-510-9400 www.phillytuner.com Graduate of The School of Piano Technology for the Blind www.pianotuningschool.org Vancouver, WA -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
