Re: Need the name of the thick domed washers used on keyboard / bellows strap

Jim, do you want these for use with leather bellows lock straps or for keyboard trim? Would you be using them on one or your pre-WWII accordions? I could make some for you, You could email me directly and we could talk more about it.

Re: Need the name of the thick domed washers used on keyboard / bellows strap

Jim,
They're called finishing washers. Available at Lowe's, Ace Hardware, or anyplace that is supplied by the Hillman Group. See link #1 for Lowes #8 brass.

Re: Need the name of the thick domed washers used on keyboard / bellows strap

Ned, not the same as finishing washers. The ones Jim is talking about are bigger. I've only seen them from accordion parts suppliers, and only in silver.
