Maybe I'd better clarify before I start drawing flies. If you're stringing an old upright that isn't getting a soundboard, needed or otherwise, and the work you're already doing is more than the piano's worth, and there's no way another nickle will be allowed for further concessions to function and performance, by all means. Epoxy the old pins in place. I was taking exception to doing that as a matter of course when there are better results to be had by replacing pins. I confess, old upright players don't usually get new pins in my shop because the price tag is already five times what the average owner thinks the job is worth. After all, pianos last forever, and the tooner said it just needs a few hoses. Ron N
