Hello John R, Ron and List
I did just that to a bass bridge in a spinet and the result was =
excellent. The bass bridge had come completely a-drift!=20

  How about, countersinking a wood screw. It can be left in, after the =
epoxy dries.
  That way you won't have to wait, or return after the epoxy dries.

    I have a Baldwin Acrosonic here with a bridge that is separating.  =
The separation is in the high treble only.  The customer doesn't have a =
lot of money and re-capping the bridge is beyond the value of the piano. =
 I was thinking about removing the strings from hitch pins and getting =
under the bridge with epoxy.  In the past, while the epoxy cures, I've =
used the "2 Pieces of Pinblock" method for clamping down the bridge.   =
Does anyone have a better method?  Any ideas or alternate methods would =
be appreciated. =20

    thanks
    Ron
