<HTML><HEAD></HEAD> <BODY>Hi Roger,  I enjoyed your class last= week.  Phil Ford just delivered a SD-10? = 1981...it acually only says SD on the plate...he installed= Ronsen Wurzen hammers and the piano is very nice.  He= lacquered the top only.   I do have a slightly weak= spot at the top of the 1st treble section that I might= lacquer...sort of a continuance of his high treble= lacquering.  All in all the piano has plenty of everything,= but I'm still getting to know.  David= Ilvedson <DIV style="PADDING-RIGHT: 5px; PADDING-LEFT: 5px;= PADDING-BOTTOM: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #000000 3px solid;= PADDING-TOP: 5px"> <HR> Original message From: Roger Jolly= <ROGER.J@SASKTEL.NET> To: College and University Technicians= <CAUT@PTG.ORG> Received: Thu, 17 Feb 2005 13:22:16= -0600 Subject: Re: [CAUT] SD-10 duplex question <FONT= size=3> Hi= Jeff,          &= nbsp;     Try the Ronsen, Werzen felt. It= will be very close.  They were a softer cold pressed= hammer, usually juiced in the top and bottom octave. Use 4:1= lacquer to lacquer thinner.  Let harden for 2 or 3 days= before further voicing for best results.
