Re: [Harp-L] seydel reed screw and valve

Simplest thing is to cut a slot in the top of the valve. Mine are usually U 
shaped. so you have glued point of contact between the screw and slot and a 
little on each side of the slot. It works.

Subject: [Harp-L] seydel reed screw and valve


I want to put a valve on a reed slot with a seydel screw holding the reed in 
place.  The head of the screw protrudes from the rivet hole so I can't lay the 
valve down flat on the slot.  What's the best solution to this problem?

Thanks,
