I was referring to Don Rose in = my reply if there is any question. Yes, It is a "great experience, if = nothing else". I now amend my post. My octave model was conceived to = show wear points, and visually demonstrate them. I agree that one of the = single key,wippen,damper,hammer,etc should be replaced as new as = possible. The others ,as in my post should be to demonstrate the = difference. Use old varied parts,hopefully in increments in order to = visually let the customer understand the problems that we encounter, = while educating them to the best of our ability Hubert Liverman Tuner/tech Opelika, AL ----- Original Message -----=20 From: Don Mannino=20 To: Pianotech=20 Sent: Sunday, December 19, 2004 12:25 PM Subject: Re: Action Model Julia, Most piano companies have action models for sale, but they are = expensive, like $200 and up. Kawai currently is out of upright models, = but to order a grand action model call the parts department at (800) = 421-2177 (in the US or Canada).

Replace the worn cloths and leathers, rebush the keys, and make a = 3 note model!
