Although I am new to this list and the "net" in general, I have been a tuner/technician for about 15 years, and became frustrated with inability to get matching parts. Although supply Co's here do quite a wide range of "standard parts", the variety of piano actions far outstrips them.This is why I started making parts to pattern. Do you think this would be of interst to technicians inUS? I would be glad of your opinion, and if so, a clue as to the best way to let them know. Is there anyone in the US making parts to pattern, or are you all buying whole actions and key boards? Thanks again regards Tony. >> Hi Tony: Yes I think there is probably a market for you custom made parts it you can reach the right people. This pianotech list is probably a good start as well as your own website. You might want to consider joining the PTG International division & subscribe the the Journal where you also place an ad. For info on this PTG International Headquarters can be reached by phone: 816-753-7747; Fax: 816-531-0070; email: ptg@ptg.org; & www.ptg.org Someone else on the List just now provided the address of the Vagias plastic elbows manufacturer. Hope this has been of some help. Regards, Bruce
