First... why only 81 solinoids.. I cant remember not being able to get at least 85 in a piano. As for where to begin and where to end... That has a good deal to do with how much room you got at either end of the keybed. How much do you eventually have to cut out of the legs for the slot... etc. In general tho.. I try and leave as many blanks on each side. Make sure you hook the solenoids up to the right numbers on the driver boards. If you start at key number 2 for example.. make sure that solenoid is connected to note 2 on the bass driver board. Where you located ?
