Kent Web told me that there was someone who makes offset Steinway half-rounds, with the hole slightly to one side. I wrote it down somewhere, but you might try contacting him to find out who makes them. Depending on how you orient them you can increase or decrease the ration, just like the veneer fix that David describes. A shop hound could probably make them without too much trouble.
