This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Hi, List. I have just finished inspecting the action of an old Hallet & Davis baby grand. (The serial number seems to have been long ago obliterated but I'm guessing it's about 60-70 years old.) The piano was just "rebuilt" but the "rebuilder" didn't bother to regulate the action. This action isn't a little out, it's grossly out! Perhaps the reason it wasn't regulated is that most of the regulating screws are binding so badly I think they would break, or worse - strip the holes if they were turned any large amount. I will shortly be attempting to regulate this action. I'm looking for any experiences out there with techniques to free up binding regulating screws. It has been suggested that I try pin-point applications of Proteck's Prolube liquid, which I will. But I would like to have more than one card up my sleeve before I start this job. Can anyone suggest other approaches? I thought of Liquid Wrench, but would it harm the action? Thanks, Arnie Arnold D.
