orientation).

  ..... little understanding of the grand soundboard, and indeed =
building a grand is a  different process than a vertical.

    Objet : Best soudboard shape


  Hello,
  I am a french piano upright manufacturer and I would like to make now =
a
  grand piano 188 cm lenght.

  I am interested to know what's the best shape to apply to grand piano
  soundboard when gluing ribs in bed tool, is it like a cylinder shape =
where
  bridge is on the top, or may be a sphere shape like upright where the =
top is
  on the middle of bridge ? or something other ?
  Also, what's the best curve amplitude in this case ??
  and for to finish, the best downbearing map from note No 1 to 88 ??
  .
  Many thanks for your help..                Vincent,
