    Hi, Paul,

    Earlier today, I tried putting a sliver of wood in the hole, and now the screw and lever are indeed much more snug. I’ll have to see if it stays that way. Thanks!

    Hi, Charles,

    As you must’ve guessed, I don’t have much knowledge about this. I have a friend here who knows much more about it than I, but he’s never worked on anything as refined and valuable as a harp. I’m in the desert of West Texas (Midland/Odessa area).

    Hi, Charles,

    With the lever off the harp, the screw indeed screws all the way into the wood properly and then stops once the head meets the wood (I assume that’s what you meant by “bottom out”). Nothing seems to me to be the wrong size. I’m guessing the hole is stripped out in the “upper” part, as you suggest. Assuming that’s the case, is there an easy fix that you know of?
