[CW] Adjusting a Straight Key

[Richard Knoppow]

    Thank you. I wrote a long piece on adjusting bugs. After 
reading it I realized that different bugs have different 
dimensions so I needed to account for that. Gets complicated.
    I found one of the greatest differences in the feel of a 
straight key is the nature of the spring. For instance J-38 keys 
always feel spongy to me but replacing the spring cures it. 
Something about the dimensions or perhaps the material. I like 
crisp keys but some may prefer the "softer" feel of the original 
springs.
