If one section has failed badly enough to need replacement, I would be =
concerned about how long the other sections might last. Perhaps either =
junking the piano or conversion to wooden flanges might also be =
considered.

  Subject: Brass rail duplication


  I'm wondering if anyone knows of another brass rail duplicator other =
than Schaff.  From other techs that I've talked to, they haven't been =
really pleased with the accuracy that Schaff has provided lately and =
their pricing and turn around time seems a little unreasonable.

  I have a small section (7 3/4") that I need duplicated and I really =
don't understand why I have to pay full price for something that is less =
than half the size of a normal piece.  I realize there is time spent in =
setting up the duplicating machine, but there ought to be a more =
reasonable approach to pricing considering it's less than half of the =
work.

  Yes, of course I can pass the price to the client and I really have no =
gripe with Schaff other than this, but there ought to be a better way.  =
Perhaps someone knows of one.
