<DIV>I have a "D" in a recital hall that the doublets don't hold backchecks
firmly. The checks and wires have been changed too many times I
guess. I called Steinway to see if they sold doublets for the keys, and
they said no. They suggested I make some from laminated wood, or solid
maple.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Have any of you had to do this? This action really needs some work
done over winter break and that's going to be my best opportunity to do
it. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Any suggestions?</DIV>
