<FONT face="Comic Sans MS, sans-serif">And of course there is the VFG felt as well. A good all purpose felt. It is my hammer of choice for most uprights & have used many sets myself. Right out of the box there is lots of tone.  I find it has less color but many of the Ronsen clients use it religiously. <U>It needs some needling after the top</U> packs in but its' any easy job. Uhh.... SO does any hammer<br>   After that we start to have a discussion on the mysteries of the internal friction within felt. How that effects what we do can only be known by the sound that results.<br>  SO to me it's Bacon,Vfg Wurzen, & the Weickert special.  I hesitate to rank them because folks draw conclusions base only on wording and  I don't consider any of the felts low density or soft. There all a medium density. I'd rank traditional Stwy hammers as soft but hey every day thers' a thing  I can't keep up with.<br>   But by density the way felt makers rank them I think this would be right. I'll ask Jack(Da man)<br>  Terry I fyou need a recommendation post off line.<br>   Thanks<br>   <br>   Dale</FONT><br> <br> <br> -----<br> <br> <div id=AOLMsgPart_2_71f89a39-bc37-45d3-86d1-cffe7db66c1a> <STYLE> @#AOLMsgPart_2_71f89a39-bc37-45d3-86d1-cffe7db66c1a font-face {font-family:Tahoma; panose-1:2 11 6 4 3 5 4 4 2 4;} #AOLMsgPart_2_71f89a39-bc37-45d3-86d1-cffe7db66c1a p.MsoNormal,#AOLMsgPart_2_71f89a39-bc37-45d3-86d1-cffe7db66c1a li.MsoNormal,#AOLMsgPart_2_71f89a39-bc37-45d3-86d1-cffe7db66c1a div.MsoNormal {margin:0in; margin-bottom:.0001pt; font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman";}#AOLMsgPart_2_71f89a39-bc37-45d3-86d1-cffe7db66c1a a:link,#AOLMsgPart_2_71f89a39-bc37-45d3-86d1-cffe7db66c1a span.MsoHyperlink {color:blue; text-decoration:underline;}#AOLMsgPart_2_71f89a39-bc37-45d3-86d1-cffe7db66c1a a:visited,#AOLMsgPart_2_71f89a39-bc37-45d3-86d1-cffe7db66c1a span.MsoHyperlinkFollowed {color:blue; text-decoration:underline;}#AOLMsgPart_2_71f89a39-bc37-45d3-86d1-cffe7db66c1a p {margin-right:0in; margin-left:0in; font-size:12.0pt; font-family:"Times New Roman";}#AOLMsgPart_2_71f89a39-bc37-45d3-86d1-cffe7db66c1a span.emailstyle19 {font-family:Arial; color:navy;}#AOLMsgPart_2_71f89a39-bc37-45d3-86d1-cffe7db66c1a span.EmailStyle190 {font-family:Arial; color:navy;}@#AOLMsgPart_2_71f89a39-bc37-45d3-86d1-cffe7db66c1a page Section1 {size:8.5in 11.0in; margin:1.0in 1.25in 1.0in 1.25in;}#AOLMsgPart_2_71f89a39-bc37-45d3-86d1-cffe7db66c1a div.Section1 {page:Section1;}</STYLE> <div class=Section1> <div class=MsoNormal><FONT face=Arial color=navy size=2><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; COLOR: navy; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">Other way around.  From soft to hard: Bacon.
