I tried messing with the end points.... and will continue to play with them .. the issue is when it seats all the way down the servo horn is below the servo center causing the piano wire to bend around the center....if I move it up so it doesn't bend then it doesn't seat....if I shorten the rod then I don't get full height.... I think there is a very small window to get both full seat and full height I just haven't found it yet. That's why I'm liking your idea on turning the horn to the front and adding a cross bar.. I was trying to keep it as original looking as possible but I'm thinking I can make the second bar look ok...
I'm trying to avoid major brakes and miss drills...LOL I didn't know that the longer curing epoxy cures harder....I am learning that there are ways to fix these if you screw up which makes me a little less afraid of ruining them.... I'm really enjoying this hobby even though I'm just starting out...
