Broken Leg Plate '27 Baldwin

[PAULREVENKOJONES]

Isaac:

With all due respect, welding works very well if done properly. I've had three instances of broken leg plates where the size or shape was not available for replacement, and a welder here in my building did a beautiful job of welding them. I service these pianos, and the repair has stood up (no pun intended) for over 15 years and counting.

I have a 1927 Baldwin A in the shop with a cracked leg plate. Any suggestions (repair possible? weld? replace with Schaff plates?)  would be appreciated.
