A client's old birdcage piano has some splits in the pinblock.  He is 
strongly committed to keeping it as it's in a house which belonged to 
his grandparents and which he has restored, and the piano may have been 
in the house since the house was built.

Would it be a good idea to put epoxy, or CA glue into the splits, of 
which there are severat, about two to three inches long and varying in 
depth from 14 inch to 3/8 inch.  Which would be better? CA or epoxy?

Best regards,

David.
