Terry, So Far i have the grand hammer hanging jig, the soundboard cleaners, and several sets of cauls and the underlever jig. It is a matter of money. But I will get the rest as needed =) Steven Hopp Midland, TX From: mfarrel2 at tampabay.rr.com To: pianotech at ptg.org Date: Sat, 27 Feb 2010 10:33:23 -0500 Subject: Re: [pianotech] Gluing Damper Felt Keep it simle Steven - just go to Bill's website and order one of each!

I just bushed a set and did not have to do any easing when I was done. I did the prep work and the final result was perfect. I look forward to adding more from his line. Probably the hammer and shank clamps and the soundboard repair stuff. We will see.

Following your advice and Susan's PTG Tech article should make it easier. Not starting till next week.

Fewer shut off problems, it doubles for getting the timing right at installation and you can determine how much you need to trim the trichords right there. David Love www.davidlovepianos.com I'm wondering how many of you glue new damper felt on old heads and wires with dampers in the piano and/or out? I have a set to do on a newly strung piano and this is the first set I am attempting. I have Susan Grahms articles from the PTG technical prep manual and her method and I have a method and suggestion from a colleague who suggests something different. Thoughts? Suggestions?
