Hello list,

?

I need to repair a fractured keystick on a clients piano.? There is a fracture on both sides in the area below the button.? The front of the button has come unglued as a result.? My fix was going to be try to get as much wood glue in the fracture and under the key button as possible, then get a thin?piece of veneer and glue on each side of the keystick, clamp and dry.? Then sand the sides to fit once installed back in the piano.

?

Yes or no?
