And I remember using the same sort of expletives with that piano, too. The pin in the pitman was falling out of that one, so I glued it back in and everything has worked fine since. What I was probably doing was extending its length without even realizing it. Thanks for everyone else's good suggestions. It's always handy to have more solutions than less and if they don't apply for the current situation, I'm sure they will work for some other piano in the future. I will let the list know of it was the short pin syndrome this time around. Jeannie Jeannie Grassi, RPT Bainbridge Island, WA jgrassi@silverlink.net
