that's it in motion, and consequently has more weights and mass so "breakaway" is more dramatic.

But what is the difference? Does "accelerated" make use of the idea that weights added closer to the balance rail add less inertia? tg ----- Original Message ----- From: Chris Solliday To: College and University Technicians Sent: Monday, January 07, 2008 6:10 PM Subject: Re: [CAUT] pictures of new key weighting pattern sorry Tim I just reread your post and see that you too left in a basic pattern so I guess we are just about equal. Since yours was an accelerated weigh off made retarded, after you removed the back leading did you leave a more conventional weigh off pattern, or go with the accelerated pattern? Chris ----- Original Message ----- From: Tim Geinert To: College and University Technicians Sent: Monday, January 07, 2008 2:10 PM Subject: [CAUT] pictures of new key weighting pattern List, Thought some of you might like to see these pics. I just finished plugging over 400 holes(I know that key replacement should have been considered, but it is not possible for this customer), and that was after I left what I hope to be a basic starting weight pattern in the keys. I just weighed the leads that came out. To be honest, I was a little dissappointed they only weighed 15 pounds. Oh well. I would be interested, though, to find out where that stands as far as bragging rights go. Oh. The key weighing was part of an S&S "B" rebuilding 10 years ago that included Renner Blues on shanks with a 16mm pin to knuckle measurement, pinblock replacement without glueing it in or fitting it to the flange and also pushed the plate back to shorten #88 to about 46 mm, delignit block with VERY tight pins and coils 10 to 12 mm above plate. This piano is just a joy! :-( Back to the grindstone. Tim Geinert -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
