    List

   Ray at Ronsen Piano Hammer just sent me specific wood weights.  =
Thought you might be interested.

      Ray has a new light weight maple molding which is lighter than =
sapele.  I find this an advantage because with less wood weight I can =
use the 16 lb. felt which makes for a taller hammer especially in the =
octave 5&6.

     Be gone for few days. Be back weds.

      Blessed Easter to All
