This was a replace-worn-hammers-only job.  I took off totally shot
Renner Blues on Renner shanks and reused the shanks.  Nothing else about
the action or geometry was changed.  The geometry is fine, plays fine,
regulates fine, so I haven't even analyzed the ratio.  I'm mostly
pleased at the range of tonal colors available with these hammers.
Practice room pianos get such a beating that hammer replacement is a
frequent necessity.  Fortunately the Renner shanks and wippens outlast
several sets of hammers.

Dave,

I'm hoping to have the chance to try them soon.  Just curious, what SW
range (and whose shanks & flanges) did you use?

	I just hung my first set of Ronsen Wurzen hammers on an "M" in a
practice room.  I'm really happy with them and the first two pianists
who have tried the piano also like them.  The range of tonal colors is
wonderful from dark to quite bright.  The dark sound is dark by not
dull.  The bright fortissimo is bright but not harsh.  There's just a
far greater range of tones available.

	After June 1st (the start of our new budget year) I'm ordering 3
more sets!
