unusual dampers

[Jurgen Goering]

Dampers shaped like an "M" for bi-chords sound like a good idea.  
However, my personal experience is that there is normally not a problem 
with regular shaped "V" dampers for bi-chords if they are seated 
correctly.  For me, damping problems usually originate elsewhere.

Having said that, if there is a demand for this style of bass damper 
felt, I can get some custom cut from high quality felt.  A factory 
minimum would apply to my order with the felt maker, but if there is 
sufficient demand I would be willing to stock this.
Anyone interested?
