Who'd like some brass butt plates that really fit ? ( Subscribers sought, ...

Let Piano tech know. Perhaps they will stock them.

The supply house plates don't fit a lot of pianos
I see.   The big round notch at the bottom rides too
high over the stud, so when you  tighten them  they
twist sideways, and the top edge rubs on the inside  of
the butt.
I spoke with saintly genius machinist  Robert
Streicher, yesterday ( who's made parts for Ampicos
and Steinways  for decades- you've probably bought some
) and he said he'd make me   proper ones: with a  small
square notch that fits the W,N& G  action I'm working
on.  ( He made 75,000 plates for Steinway  damper
levers, for APSCO, so he can probably handle this. )
I'd like to make it "worth his while",  and also
of  benefit to other techs, so please let me know if
you'd like a set. ( I'll  keep a list. )
