Tech Tip
by Michael Slavin, RPT

When installing a new set of hammers on a grand action, occasionally some wet glue will drip from the collar or settle onto the hammer rest rail felt. These drops of glue will impregnate the felt and dry and harden, and can become noisy when the shanks return. To avoid damaging the rest rail felt, simply cover it with a thin strip of saran wrap, wax paper, plastic sheet (dry cleaner's bag, etc.) before beginning the gluing process.
