<DIV><BR></DIV>Don,<BR><X-TAB> </X-TAB>I've
only had success when I've adopted advice from one of the kind ladies of this
list who shared , some time ago I might add, that we should get rid of the
little rubber grommets and such and felt line the arm like it's been done in
the past. It Might have been Susan as I seem to remember her mixture of super
glue and white glue to adhere the two ends of the felt together after being
passed through the pedal arm hole. Do this twice (one for each side of the
hole) and you're set. No more squeaks. Some things just don't need to be
reinvented.<BR><BR>best,<BR>Greg<BR><BR><BR><BR>At 03:04 AM 3/22/2006, you
