[CAUT] tone building for impatient pianists

That's what I mean, Fred.

Maybe I'm just too nervous about tipping an action up on end while doing 
something else to it.  I want to stay focused on the job at hand and have 
the action safe!
Should I just rest the action end on a table and steady it with some sort 
of block on the floor? or just hold it with my shoulder while applying the 
solution? I'm really nervous about putting an action on its' end. Maybe I 
should just get over it?!!!  Do I apply a few drops on one side...flip the 
action around and apply a few drops to the other side, or what?

Hi Paul,
I'm not sure what you mean. Do you mean something like bass hammers to the 
floor, treble to the ceiling, for purposes of applying something to the 
sides of the hammers? In which case I just lean it against a handy wall, a 
simple matter of slow and careful. Or do you mean something else?
