Although this subject has come up before, if you are considering trying to repair this plate you might want to contact Larry Crabb in Atlanta at PNHD76A@prodigy.com. He had a similar problem develop on a rebuild several months ago and managed to repair the problem with great success (so far). Hope this helps, Allan Gilreath Gilreath Piano & Organ Co.
