[pianotech] key sticking

[KeyKat88 at aol.com]

Greetings,
 
          In this work, its usually something logical like that. As you get 
more experience, confidence grows and one actually looks forward to 'saving 
the day' for a customer. Keep up the good work. I remember being worried 
about 5 keys in a spinet that were stuck. Here I found a small plastic toy 
rhinocerous - tusks and all  - fallen down behind the sticker wires, it looked 
like he was in a cage at the zoo.

Hi John & Julia,
It turns out it was just a pencil lying in such a way that it was causing 
the key to bind. I had to take the key cover off and reach in a little and 
there it was waiting for someone to set it free. lol I thought about it this 
morning and read about the sostenuto, and thought the tab could have been 
grabing the blade. I was so glad I didn't have to spend time taking the piano 
apart because my wife was on a tight schedule to get back to pick the kids 
up. It was a 45 minute drive each way.  I'm glad that pencil saved the day. lol
