Midnight Puzzler

[David Ilvedson]

The hammer rest rail was tightened down too far and catching wippen springs
and or wippens.

Hey here's a relatively easy one. :-)

Piano: Sojin Grand

Problem: Keys in the treble sticking occasionally and not always the same
key(s).

Symptoms: Key bushings were free and clear, balance holes were loose almost
pully, whippen and hammer flanges free to very minor friction, sticking
problem only in treble area but there was a 'slight' occasional ticking
noise
on every key throughout the scale. The problem seemed to disappear with the
action out of the piano, and before the cheek blocks and fallboard were
reinstalled.

Question: What it was? :-)
