[pianotech] Steinway Lyre bolts...

[Paul McCloud]

Hi, Jon:
I apologize if I got it wrong.  It may be there is no cam for the lyre on this one.  I don't have the catalog in front of me, so I didn't check the price of the cam or screw.  My bad.

Things are really getting crossed up here. This is the lyre thread, not 
the stripped leg screw thread. What is a button/wedge? Is it the locking 
cam?  I am assuming that it does not have a cam since you asked for 
'screws', more than one; which would made it fastened with two screws. 
The year of manufacture would determine whether it is a wood screw or a 
threaded to the head screw. Any #18 or 20 x 3" wood screw will work. A 
2.25" screw would not clear the top plate of the lyre, that would be for 
the low-profile cam/button/wedge thingy. Have they gone back to that for 
the lyre?
