In a message dated 98-12-29 21:41:38 EST, you write: << Tonight I came back to tighten flanges and align hammers. I suspect that the problem is that the flanges do not fit the rail properly...not a tight enough fit. I tried every flange I had in my kit, all from Schaff or APSCO. None of them fit very well. Is this just the way things are? Does no one make good replacement flanges? >> What brand is this piano. There are about three or four different flanges in production. If you can't find one of them to fit, then perhaps it was an oddball disign in the first place, and you do what you can with what you got. If you want to spend the time, and the customer the money, perhaps you can modify a flange to make it fit, and then do that to all of them. Wim
