Another university unit, another Kohler & Campbell, except this is a new one, and the only thing Kohler & Campbell about it is the name on the fallboard. The questions are: 1. Is this a Samick? If not, it sure missed a good chance. 2. Does Samick return phone calls? 3. One of the stamped metal damper rod hanger BRACKETS is broken in half. It's a very clean break, complete with a nice 45-degree angle at the shear point. If #2 question doesn't work out, does this bracket sound like a candidate for silver soldering? If not, what are my options? What do I use to align the pieces while joining? Obviously, a replacement part, or six (since it's going to happen again), would be faster and superior, but failing that, I need to put this piano back into service quickly.
