	I went out as promised to work on my customers brand new grand
piano.  She complained that A below middle C sticks.  I tired and tried
but couldn't make it stick.  I played slow, I played fast,
soft...hard...nothing.  I even tuned the piano but noticed nothing.  As
I went to leave I told her that I couldn't find it.  Then she said that
as soon as I left it would start sticking again.  I felt guilty so I
looked again.  Then I felt a slight heaviness when I slowly pushed the
key down.
	I decided to find out if it was in the action or the keybed.  The
action had no apparent discrepancies.  I decided it was in the key so I
tested to see if it was in the balance hole or the front mortise.  I
lifted up at the key and the balance hole felt fine so I pushed the key
down slowly and then it felt fine.  I was really puzzled so I took the
action stack off from the key frame.  What did I find?
