[CAUT] WNG glue and black dust

[Larry J Messerly]

Sounds like the situation where Baldwin would not approve a new easier to
handle pin block because it woule not pass the boiling test.

Hi Mark, 

I'm a bit confused about the "freezing test".  When am I ever going to
put a piano in such conditions?  At least the one I'm working on will
stay in a classroom for its' remaining lifetime...or mine....whichever
comes first ;>)  Why do you perform this kind of test? For moving pianos
in January? Please inform. 

Thanks 
Paul

Hi Ed, 
  
That is an interesting point about the “J” curve.  We the Gel CA it is
possible to remove the hammers with a little heat on the glue joint and
our hammer removal pliers.  The will be available in a few weeks. 
  
The glue we did use was “Assembly 65” made by the Franklin Glue Co. and
not PVC-E.  The PVC-E did not pass the freezing test as most glues
tested. 
  
As earlier mentioned, it is important to always wear a good breathing
devise whenever cutting our shanks or wood.  The same goes for eye
protection.  Protect what you have.
