Jon,

I think you're right. You can see where the strings are actually cutting grooves. I'm just not sure what to do where the angle is so acute. (by the break)

Regards,
Jim Busby

This piano definitely needs a brass half-round or half-oval for the 
counter bearing.
The felt between that and the agraffes and pins only needs to be thick enough
to mute the wire and not cause drag.

I've done this to S&S's and Baldwins with good results.
