I can think of a way to keep the key from walking on the balance rail pin, but it would be rather invasive -- not worth it for a retrofit. The idea would be stolen from a children's toy I'm at a loss to name or describe. Ummmm.... One of those floppy, cascading thingamagigs... You know... With the wood blocks and the cloth straps... <hurumph...> Anyway, I think I'll leave it alone. Thanks, Isaac. Peace, Sarah
