<html> <body> Cliff, I don't understand this. I "thought" we were talking about removing the key slip. Weren't we? :-) Avery At 11:32 AM 6/16/04, you wrote: <blockquote type=cite class=cite cite>Jerry, I just did this less than a week ago.  It worked beautifully without affecting anything else. 1.  Remove case parts. 2.  Remove keys 3.  Loosen keyframe screws (8) 4.  Place shims (I used business card slivers) between keyframe and keyslip. 5.  With the shims in place, tighten keyframe screws. 6.  Replace keys and case parts. Time required:  20 to 30 minutes.
