I'm replacing the felt reservoirs on under the ram of my Rhodes Shaper. The felt that was in there was probably 100 years old and was quite a bit retracted (shrunk) so it didn't reach the level of the ways. When I made the news ones I cut them just a little less thick than the depth of the hole in the casting such that they would sit a bit below level. Is this correct? Should they be flush with the top? More shy?
I also wonder if the felt should be secured into the hole in any way? Maybe a bit of glue on the bottom? I guess they might sit in place without being glued down but I thought it couldn't hurt to ask?
As always.. thanks!
