Hi David

    I get an name error on the HWspec column.  Seems like the cupspline
    name is not recognized. When I open the spreadsheet a warning about
    macros being disabled comes on because the security level is set
    high and none of the macros are digitally signed. Any clues as to why ?

    Looks kinda cute tho for generating non-Stanwood standard
    Strikeweight curves.  I use a different approach based on a Bezier
    function that Mark Davidson helped me work out. Combined with the
    ratios of the three levers, the whippen radius weight and your
    desired BW, you get a bezier curve generated set of hammer radius
    weights and key radius weight.  I like very much the graph style
    that Rons has tho.

    In anycase... heres my sheet for anyone that may find it useful. 
    Again, I credit Mark Davidson for helping me figure out how to apply
    the Bezier function to the spreadsheet.

        Dear List,

        Ron Nossaman posted an excel spreadsheet a while back for
        graphing hammer
        weights and I promised to make it available with my own edits and
        additions.  My version contains two sheets. One for hammer
        weights (strike
        weights minus 1.8g) and one for strike weights along with data
        columns for
        all the curve standards. It's available at:

        http://www.stanwoodpiano.com/E-SmartChart2.3.xls

        It's virus free.   Comments and suggestions welcome.

        Hope this helps..

        Thanks Ron,

        David Stanwood
