Hi all,

One of problems facing aspiring piano makers is the acquisition or 
fabrication of some of the specialised equipment necessary for the 
success of a manufacturing venture. In many instances, we have no 
option but to manufacture the construction gear before building the 
piano.

Regarding the problem of drying the sound board panel, I recently set 
about designing and building a special unit for the purpose.

The finished result can now be viewed at;

For those who wish to see the internal air ducting of this unit, 
there is a link on the above page which will take you through to 
another image, taken before it was finally closed up. There's also a 
link to an illustration of the sound board-panel moisture meter, 
which resides in the drying box.

Best,
Ron O.
