Paul said; But WHY did this action behave before I took the stack off the first time to raise up all the sharps as they were too low? This is a natural key which had nothing done other than raise up the blow distance a bit? Why I always get the weird stuff is beyond me! Didn't you also add more punchings under the sharp to correct the key dip? If keytops were replaced without dimensioning the key to retain the original thickness, the whites will hit the front rail punchings on the sharps before it completes the keystroke. That could be why the sharps were low in the first place. The other thing is placement of stack. If the magic lines aren't right on, the capstan wears a divot in the whip heel. If the stack was jammed forwards by a mm or two, the wear pattern could hangup the key on the wippen. Loosen the screws and tap the bracket back to seat in place on the keyframe. Check for debris that could have fallen between the frame and stack. Keith Roberts -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
