Matthew, First off with 30 broken you should sell the customer on replacing them all. Remove a whippen. See the little plug holding in the cord. Remove the little plug. Replace the cord ,replicate the length of the loop from one that is intact. Make some kind of guage to do this consistantly. Insert a like plug then do this 87 more times. Matthew we've been talking about this type of thing for several years now. Apply some curiosity - ingenuity -creativity- and then the REAL learning will begin. I'm working with a beginning tech and quite often I'll say : "Find a way" or "Figure it out" There is nothing you can do that can't be corrected . This stuff ain't rocket surgery. Best wishes, Tom D. http://www.tomdriscollpianoservice.com/ I've got a piano with about 30 or so broken rep. spring cords. The piano is a Cable-Nelson grand from 1935. What is the best way to replace these? Help appreciated......thanks Matthew -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
