The extendible rod, or any rod, could be put under the bottom, but would likely have little effect on the soundboard. A bottom cover would be difficult to fashion as the case does not extend lower than where the rods might go on the bottom.</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I can't imagine any way to install a DC humidifier system. However, if you were very determined, you might be able to rig up a dehumidification system.The only way I can think of to do it would be to put a rod above the keys, in front of the action stack and extend it into the bass cavity. Of course, the rod would have to be removed whenever the action was removed. Or you could put very short rods in the bass cavity only or short rods in bass cavity and a short rod maybe attached to the front of the action stack. And of course, use a humidistat - likely best to install at the entrance to the bass cavity. </FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Any of these possible installations would likely require quite a bit of ingenuity!</FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Terry Farrell</FONT></DIV> <BLOCKQUOTE dir=ltr style="PADDING-RIGHT: 0px; PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #000000 2px solid; MARGIN-RIGHT: 0px"> <DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial">----- Original Message ----- </DIV> <DIV style="BACKGROUND: #e4e4e4; FONT: 10pt arial; font-color: black"><BR> </DIV> <DIV><STRONG><FONT face=Arial>I can't see why not.</FONT></STRONG></DIV> <DIV><STRONG><FONT face=Arial>I imagine the extendible rods,  to support the humidifier would be used.</FONT></STRONG></DIV> <DIV>John M.
