<td valign="top" style="font:inherit;">I just came into possession of a lovely Knabe upright made about 1887. It will need new hammers, but I'm thinking I'll need to bore the hammers myself if I am to get the same angles--I'd like to keep it true to original if possible. Is there is a jig available that will serve this purpose?<BR><BR>Arlie Rauch<BR></td>
