No post since the 25th John... What'd you end up doing? How'd it go? Lance Lafargue, RPT Mandeville, LA New Orleans Chapter, PTG lancelafargue@bellsouth.net -----Original Message----- From: owner-pianotech@ptg.org [mailto:owner-pianotech@ptg.org]On Behalf Of John Ross Sent: Monday, December 25, 2000 12:14 PM To: pianotech@ptg.org Subject: Hammer Boring Problem Hi List, I have a problem. The hammers I am installing, were supposed to have a length of bore, that tapered from #54 to #88. They were supposed to be about 1/4" less at #88. I am supposed to have the action back to the customer on the 28th. Dec. I never thought on checking the hammers, when they arrived from the supplier, since I have never had a problem before. I should have followed Newton's suggestion, and supplied the measurements. I do not have a jig. Is it possible for me to make something, that would allow me to do a passable job? I have a drill press, and a travelling vice. Any suggestions, would be appreciated. The 1/4" discrepancy is just too much. Regards, John M.
