[pianotech] Epoxy for pinblock

[Pierre Pouliot]

Yes I know I considered it but came to the conclusion that I'm better not spend too much on a 4'10'' grand...
But this is also the occasion to try a new technique instead of trowing the old block to fire I have to try it don't you think?   I'll have the occasion to put a new pin bloc on another one.

You don't want to put in a new pinblock for practice?   That would seem to be more in the restore arena...
