Re: [newmellotrongroup] 2ba nuts

Andy, a standard 11/32 US socket works great. If you can't find a metric  
equivalent, just use long-nose piers.

Why do you ask?
 
 
Because I'm having a 'keyboard fixing' day. I started by  getting my 
MiniMoog keyboard level after fucking it up the other week and  intend to continue 
by replacing my M400's six most sticking  pinch-rollers with the ones that 
Martin sold me, er, some time ago. I don't  want to mangle the nuts using a 
socket that's slightly too large. Yeah, I  can try different ones until one 
fits, but it'd be good to know in advance  whether I'm wasting my time using 
a standard imperial/metric  set.
 
Andy
 
p.s. Anyone here ever refurb'd a Clavinet? I've got all the  manky old 
gunged-up rubber hammers out, but there's still some sticky  residue left in the 
hammer sockets and I'm trying to work out the best way  to remove it 
without either a) damaging anything, or b) leaving anything in  there which could 
affect the ones about to go in.
  

 
Dear all
 
Stoopid question time: are the 2ba nuts that  hold the keys on via the 
leaf-spring comparable with any 'standard'  (presumably imperial) size, before I 
knacker them? Ta!
 
Andy T.
