Replacing old with (boneyard) old rarely provides a good resolve.

Second that, ask Michael to send you pictures of the legs he just made for 
a Steinway.

          We've just received a turn of the century 
          Bluthner grand that once belonged to one of the School of Music's 
          earliest piano technicians. The cabinet is rosewood, but sadly the 
          legs and lyre aren't original, and don't do the instrument any 
          favors.

I'm not looking for originals, just some heavy turned 
          faux bois Rosewood legs and lyre; reasonable condition/price, 
          that we could adapt in order to share this instrument in public. 
          
Rosewood seemed to be the "mahogany" of the mid 1800's and there 
          were no doubt many mediocre instruments that may have been outlived by 
          their woodwork. 

Does anyone have or know of a "bone-yard" that 
          may have some?
