Hello So many messages in my mailbox I have a Bösendorfer "Imperial" I will regulate and reconditonate the action in 15 days. This grand piano is in a very moisty place , something like 65% permanent moist, and the pinning is very tight. I suppose I will go for ā complete re-pinning job, but they need the piano for a show and I may do a partial job for the dec 15th, then do the repinning, bushing, and so on , in january. I never had much succes with the water-alcohol mixture, and anyway the pinning seems really too tight 1 to 2 movements but no blocking hammer , basically all works, exept for real repetition speed. Consider the piano will stay in this moisty place - is it correct to re pin, or is there a better solution ? (the soundboard seems ok, too much crown but it sounds 15 " of nice ringing on note #65) I will appreciate an idea, something to help me for the regulation at first. In my place there is 50% moist env. If I dry the flanges, the pinning will free, but I will be papering a lot, and it surely will not stay squared and free when it will be back. Is it a job for Damp-ChaserMan ?... Best regards to all Isaac OLEG Paris - France
