[CAUT] Baldwin R (modified)

[Paul T Williams]

I've seen some Kawai's that do this also.  but the slot is too big on some 
of the flanges, so they wander off as well...Nice idea though...if they're 
set in the right place.

On the other hand this brings to mind some older Bechsteins (I think, my 
head is a bit fuzzy from surgery this morning) that had a slot in the end 
of the flange, and a pin securing its position (vertical, like those 
nails). A slight tap suffices to space the flange if the factory setting 
isn't perfect.
