Update: Old Janssent w/ broken bracket

[KeyKat88 at aol.com]

Greetings,
 
          Thank you for help, especially sug adding the glue to the splint. 
 
 Husband is fine, on his arm, he had a pattern scrape from the weave of a 
basket which sat on the piano, nothing serious, thankfully.  He has no action 
bracket marks as it cracked while action was bolted in, from the impact of piano 
falling backward.
 
. Carding is the term they taught us in school, for sanding the hammers' felt 
to alleviate the grooves. 
 
Splints; since the action bracket is cracked horizontally, I  thought 
drilling 2 holes in each side of the bracket (one above the crack on each side and 
one below the crack on each side) and splinting it together with 2 small steel 
plates and screws. I hadnt thought of the glue or J-weld but those are good 
ideas. Thank you!

What is "carding" the hammers?
 
Never mind the piano, how's your husband?
 
Splints?
