Thanks for everyone's input on this thread. I've learned some more about how and why things happen in these cases. I've done this a lot, and I'm sure I'll have to continue doing it on pianos that start breaking strings in the treble. It's just good to know what's happening. Since the measured note that wandered so far came back to within a couple of cents it appears that there is no permanent effect to the structure. Thanks again. dave -----Original Message----- From: caut-bounces@ptg.org [mailto:caut-bounces@ptg.org] On Behalf Of Don Sent: Saturday, January 01, 2005 4:14 AM To: College and University Technicians Subject: Re: [CAUT] Re: Restringing Treble Hi Richard, Make that *no dangerous movement*.
