http://ptg.org/pipermail/pianotech.php/2000-June/065872.html Wow. Thanks, Jon. After reading through that I am now anxious to try relocating some capstans. >>Set a trial capstan to this position and notice jack proximity to knuckle. If the jack is away from the knuckle, the capstan needs to be located more forwards to decrease the motion of the wippen. When you say, "if the jack is away from the knuckle," do you mean at bottom of key stroke? I presume what you are looking for is for the jack to just clear the knuckle. How much gap would you judge to be too far? >>The cushion height may have to be altered or relocated altogether. Can you give us some criteria for where the cushion height needs to be? >>capstan drilling jig jpg avail Please do repost this.
