I'm looking for someone in the NJ/NY/CT/MD area who can do some maintenance work on my Williams D10.
In particular I'm looking to have a couple of knee levers shifted to a more custom fit. Right now I have to reach out 8" just to make contact with my RKR.
I'm also having a problem with my first string return. I've tried tightening the springs but it didn't help.
Tks..

Gary.. I tried sending Paul an email.. If he leaves me enough cash for gas a road trip on the 14th sounds like as good idea.

I hesitate to offer him up as a steel mechanic b/c I'm not sure he's looking for a ton of that work, but my buddy and forum member Mike Nolan helped me immeasurably with my push/pull and legrande - he even rebuilt an S10 push/pull with me that I had taken completely apart.
Very skilled, very knowledgable, and a super nice guy - not a mean bone in this man's body. He's in Queens.
Best regards,
Mike |

Hi Bob,
John Widgren (in Connecticut) does some great work on pedal steels. He is a member of the Forum.
If you would like his number you can contact me
or you can probably do a search and find his info
here somewhere.
