Call Mason & Hamlin tech. support. ----- Original Message ----- From: Mark Dierauf To: Pianotech Sent: Friday, August 07, 2009 7:58 PM Subject: [pianotech] buzzing lid hinge I have a new Mason & Hamlin AA where the long lid hinge has quite a bit of play between the pin and the hinge halves. The remedies that I have heard for this problem in the past are to remove the pin and put a gentle bend in it or else to slather it with vasoline or something similar. Can anyone comment on the efficacy of either of these methods or offer alternative suggestions? I don't think that bending the pin will help in this case, as there really is quite a lot of movement between the pin and the hinge, and I don't really like the idea of smearing vasoline around. - Mark -- My uncle George had discovered that alcohol was a food well in advance of modern medical thought. -- P.
