I am rebuilding an Aeolian Harp for a Duo-Art organ.  All of the
rebuilding is done, but I want to replace the beater balls, which
are covered with wool, with a ball having the proper density and
material that would produce the harp like tone and not require
putting a wool covering on it.

Has anyone had experience in this area that could point me in the
right direction.  Thank you!
