Key bushing question

[David Ilvedson]

And do you lubricate with Ballistol?  I have a Bechstein that I am going to rebush and I had planned on going to cloth so I would have some choices in thickness.  I remember an article by Bill Spulock about thinning leather on a drum sander, I believe...too much trouble?
