[pianotech] Chickering quality

The slots lining up also means that some were over tightened to line up as 
well as other not being quite so tight to line up.

Bonjour à tous,



I wrote a small article on my blog about a Chickering grand that displays a
remarquable alignment of the slots of the screws of the hinge of the cover.
(how to say this more elegantly?)

I see that as a sign of attention to details that promise an overall quality
of assembly and design.

the hinge



In your opinion, was that done in the factory or did some obsessive
individual (like me) some day do this just for self satisfaction?

Hi all,
Is Ptbiz the best freebie database? I see a lot of techs on this forum have
complained about its inability to export data, not being msaccess friendly.

For free, I'd say you can't go wrong. :-)



I'm going to try to contact the author of PTBiz to see if he can unlock the
database so we can export all the data. At present, only some of the data
can be exported.
