There I found a German word which I never <BR>> heard of, the verb "schiebern". I know what it means, but I usually say "to <BR>> remove schieber" (schieber as a noun). Funny: in that book there was no <BR>> english word for that, the only one translation was the Italian one. It <BR>> means the following:<BR>> <BR>> When you move a few hammers to the strings by hand and you see that one <BR>> hammer has a left-hand (or right hand) twist so that the middle of the <BR>> hammer does not hit the middle of the 3 strings, one should regulate that. I <BR>> mean that the hammer makes not only a forward, but also a sideward movement <BR>> ("schieber"). In this case one takes a piece of paper and adjusts it under <BR>> one side of the hammer butt flange. Correction tape for type writers does a <BR>> good job for that. The result is that the hammer is on the correct course <BR>> again. Once I visited the Renner factory and I saw some guys who did that <BR>> job in piecework. I never so that job done so extremely quick and accurate.<BR>> <BR>> How do you say it on English?<BR>> <BR>> Gregor<BR>> <BR>> _________________________________________________________________<BR>> Express yourself instantly with MSN Messenger!
