  Like most of you, occasionally I run across a piano manufactured 35-40 =
years ago in which  hammer butt springs are missing, and those that =
remain can be broken off by just touching them.  Does anyone know =
specifically why this happens?  Is it the properties of the metal used =
to make the springs, or is it a reaction caused by the felt surrounding =
the springs that causes them to become brittle and easy to break?
