<DIV>Greetings,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> Thanks for the suggestion on manipulating the hammer rest rail. I put a washer as a spacer behind the action bracket in the way right treble. Boy did that clear up the treble closeness, it seemed to help throughout the rest of the rail too.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV> Also, upon closer examination, I pulled on the rail, and there was negative lost motion. I put some lost motion in a few of the keys and kept track of the degree of turn, then I went through and turned down all the capstans by 3/4 of a turn and the blow distance is now much more consistent; within 1/32" of the selected 1 3/4" </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks again,</DIV>
