Greetings List

	Just an update on the Yamaha U3 repinning job that a bunch of you
helped out on (!) Reamed & repinned with 2 X 2 1/2 blued cut thread
pins, worked fine, except in the lower tenor where some 3's and even
the odd 4 had to be used. Tension is consistent at 80-100 in/lbs
either direction. Probably have the only Yamaha with Baldwin pin
tension in this region! Pins are tight but not jumpy or squeaking.
Reaming is the way to go. Thanks to all who helped out.

Regards,
