Folks,
The December issue of the Journal is in the mail.  There is an article on
splicing by Bill Bremmer, just in time to answer your queries.  Enjoy.

    I dunno, he gave us a handout, with pictures.  That was in 1975.  I
don't 
recall seeing any splices like this in pianos I have worked on, but that 
doesn't necessarily mean others hadn't been  using it before that time.
