This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Hi Troops, I received a piano recently and when I unwrapped the lid it apparently was standing on edge, hinge side, in water or at least absorbed a lot of moisture. The panels making up the lid swelled of course, separated and popped the veneer off from the edge in to about 8". The front lid section is the worst and swelled enough that the veneer is not wide enough to cover it by approx 1/4". Make sense? The rest of the lid is great and didn't need any work at all if this had not happened. This was supposed to be a simple bass bridge cap, hammers, clean up and out the door job. I have my doubts I can dry this down, get some glue in the cracks and clamp it but I think that's the first thing to try unless you have other ideas. Removing top & bottom veneer, cutting, planing the panels is not what I had in mind. Thanks!
