keybed on the underside of a verrrry long bolt. (leg has to be off)

> I've had, so...... I am pulling a plate on an 1883 Chickering 6'8" grand.
> All is usual except two "screws" without slots.  On the upper plate
webbing
> near the pinblock, there are two round-topped things that are holding the
> plate down.
