Gentlemen, a while ago I believe there was a disscussion on raising the stack on a Steinway. I seem to recall a mention of rotating the stack instead of just raising it. We have a D and an O that are in need of some adjustment. The shanks arewya too high above the rebound felts for even the solution for CAF to be effective. The capstans are low. Can the archives be accessed now and does anybody remember the thread name?

Also, if there is a wippen center pin height spec, I would appreciate that info.
