Hi Newton,
I agree with the above, I usually pull about 6 sample
notes to pitch, and feel for string drag and stability, as I adjust the
thickness of the template.
The template helps to improve the consistency of friction, and hence
tuning across the scale.
I also agree with your remark about duplicating the problem, measure the
variation in pressure bar height, on the average piano, and you soon become
a believer that most manufacturers were, and still are, hit and miss in
this department.
