<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Do not get the tool. If the damper wires are not
binding, just a little goose juice sometimes does the trick for me.
</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It is a better repair to just take the damper out
and use a large enough bridge pin to iron the felt. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The "tool" for me causes damage to the damper wire
hole. It does not widen the hole evenly.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV>Anyone know who carries the umbrella stay tool for regulating damper
guide bushings/damper wires? I've already checked Schaff, MotherGoose,
Pianotek and Spurlock to no avail (unless its called by another name).
Help! My damper is up and can't get fallen!</DIV>
