I've given up rebuilding them. It's just a lot easier to replace and you get tighter fitting leather.

I seem to remember a recent discussion on escane (sp?) instead of leather - is this good - is this available - where? Or, if not, who recommends leather from where? Also, I don't see grand backcheck felt in the Pianotek catalog - what kind of felt is used under the leather? I searched the archives, but came up empty.
