[pianotech] FW: Re: crack

[Ed Sutton]

I see red flags.
People who are trying to file a bogus insurance claim are not likely to pay a piano technician who doesn't support their story.
Proceed with caution. Get paid up front.

  Hi David,

  I agree with you, this is not moving damage.  The crack they heard was probably the legs or other case parts shifting.  The crack appears to be along a glue line in the board.

  List,

  A furniture repair fellow I do work for, emailed me some photos for a moving claim.  From the info given, I thought it wasn't moving damage.  What do you guys think?


  >Hi David,

  Here are the photos.  The customer says he heard it crack as the
  movers were taking it out of the room.  Origin address was in South
  Texas, very hot and dry.  Is this even repairable?<
