Nina Butler sent me the PDF when I asked her about it when inquiring about something else. That’s how I got my copy. I am sure she would do the same for you, although I would imagine it will be on the web site eventually. It’s about 16 pages, has the CAD drawings and all. I believe they will be selling it to us for about $600. They can drill and tap the rails for the screws if you want them to also. Two different size trays and mounting blocks. Two different sizes of underlever top flanges. Three different length lift spoons. They can sell you a belly rail wall mountable sostuenuto system as part of that too.

I downloaded and printed out the PDF for it, and it looks pretty sweet – individual capstans for lift, tray pivots on the same axis as the underlever flange, aluminum tray that will not warp, screw adjustable underlever springs. I’ve got a Steinwobbie B coming up a month or so that needs a new back action, and I am leaning towards ordering my first WNG back action Will Truitt From: pianotech-bounces at ptg.org [mailto:pianotech-bounces at ptg.org] On Behalf Of David Love Sent: Saturday, February 27, 2010 1:33 PM To: pianotech at ptg.org Subject: Re: [pianotech] Gluing Damper Felt Unless the tray is warped (which it often is) which means you’ll be setting the key lift timing different from one end to the other. I prefer to use the platform to gain uniform key timing and then shim the tray felt to get uniform pedal lift or better replace the tray felt with a set of capstans and put a piece of felt on the bottom of the lever itself.

One of brass! Yet, I cannot do a better job of regulating the dampers than what I get when I use the tray itself to set the height of the underlevers. Takes no tools,and compensates for that micro wear from note to note.
