<DIV>I don't think it's a "Production screw up"! Every pin, =
(flange),
that needed to be repinned was like that. It seems to be only on the =
hammer
flanges. The wippens, although an equal amount of re-pinning was =
needed, had
the standard Euro Nickle pins. The explanation of their reason, (at
Boesendorfer), given by someone on the list, (sorry, I forgot who), =
seems to
answer the question. However, it is definately an =
"Edsel".<G></DIV>
