<DIV><FONT face="Bookman Old Style" size=2>My understanding is that in this
pitman retrofit we have wood capped with a felt punching, resting in a
leather cup, yes? If so, I wonder if any lubricant would be
necessary. If I had to lubricate between the felt and the leather, I'd
probably go with a Teflon powder.</FONT></DIV>
