My accordion has a piano key that is raised slightly above the rest. Is it possible to fix it myself?

Question by Huw: My accordion has a piano key that is raised slightly above the rest. Is it possible to fix it myself?
I bought a second hand accordion recently and I realised that one of the piano keys is slightl raised above the rest. It may have been something I have done but I don’t remeber having done anything that could have damaged it. The key still works but I am getting a bit annoyed about it. Does anybody know why this key is raised and if it can be fixed by myself?

Best answer:

Answer by DJK
Yes you can fix it if you are very careful. First check to see that it is not just the key top that is raised. Some older accordions had wooden keys that had tops made of plastic or some other material. Sometimes they come unglued and stick up a little. If that’s the case just glue it back down.

If the whole key is raised than the problem is that the valve arm is bent. Remove the grill of the accordion and you will see each key is attached to an arm with a wooden valve on the end. When you press the key the valve is raised and allows air to go through the reeds and produce a note. Try to see this so you have an idea of what’s going on. To fix the key, firmly hold the valve arm of the bad key right next to the valve with your thumb so it won’t move. Now with your other hand, push down on the raised key like you are playing it. Push firmly, but carefully and you will be slightly bending the arm. Do a little at a time, repeating this until the key is level with all the others. Be very careful not to over do it, because it is much more difficult to fix a key that is too low.

What is the value of my pcgs 1969-s penny rated pr66rd dcam?

Question by Don: What is the value of my pcgs 1969-s penny rated pr66rd dcam?
I’m confused at the PCGS site due to it having a listing for pr66rd and a pr66dcam but not a pr66rd dcam.
…Of course if you understand this question then you probably already know more about it than I do anyways…

Best answer:

Answer by Taiping
Either way it can not be worth much. Remember what PCGS thinks is not what the coin collecting community thinks. They think more highly of themselves than they should. I would say when it comes to real rare coins they are close, but modern high grade proof coins are a very common item. I see them at or all the time and it cost more to have them graded and slabbed than that. The grading companies from time to time change their system or actually screw up. I would go with the deep cameo for that value should be the highest. As you notice I don’t have a great deal of confidence in PCGS or even NGC. I do use ANACS once in a while just to make sure the coin is real. I like to have them check out the colonial coins as well as say a 1916-D dime. They are the best at that. I can grade coins myself and don’t need to pay someone else. One of these days the grading companies will fall due to the outrageous prices paid for a coin that is only one point higher and that is actually someone opinion not scientific fact. Grading is a long way from a science. So go with which ever one is the most money.

WW2………………………………?

Question by Forrest Gump: WW2………………………………?
This is only for people who know lots about WW2. :p

If Britain had remained neutral with Germany in 1939 and all the way through WW2, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, South Africa, India and many other British commonwealth+ Colony’s would have went to war with the Axis.
How would this of effected the outcome of WW2 had Britain not declare war and remained neutral?
Hitler wanted Britain as an ally, he didnt want to invade it.

Best answer:

Answer by Willow Moon
My father was in D-Day, and I wrote a book about his life, all I can say, that not all of the British colonies would have followed Britain, certainly not Canada, but it would have been a longer war, until we, the USA drop the big bomb on Germany.

Which episode of “Wedding Peach” do Momoko and Yousuke become boyfriend and girlfriend?

Question by ßΟЯɘÐ(*ᴥ*): Which episode of “Wedding Peach” do Momoko and Yousuke become boyfriend and girlfriend?
Like, when do they began to develop feelings for each other??

Best answer:

Answer by silvermoon8573
i think it’s implied that they become boyfriend and girlfriend in episode 43. in that episode, yousuke learns about everything and explains that he wants to protect momoko. it’s definitely official in episode 44 where they kiss.

i think they’ve always had feelings for each other even at the very beginning. like in earlier episodes they would get jealous of other people or would worry about each other. even their arguing was sort of a sign of their affection. so their feelings grew from there. it’s hard to pinpoint an exact episode of when they began to develop their feelings because i always felt that they cared since the beginning. but it’s definitely revealed in episode 43 and 44.
