Hello, I am in the process of restoring an 1844 8' grand similar to the broadwood used by chopin in england. the hammers look original, or close to original and still have a good amount of felt. I would like to keep the original felt if possible by softening the old and hardened felt in some way. I am working with a piano tech who mentioned that re-felting would be ideal.. I would like to see if there is some way or restoring the resiliency of the felt with steam or distilled water and a hair drier or something.. what would be the best way? cheers, Max DM -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
