Plastic elbows

[Charly Tuner]

Pat and all,

Yes, I did find the snap-on elbows in my Pacific Piano Catalog...sorry about 
that, and please disregard my question on cost.

My main objective, is to first cut/remove all the old plastic parts that 
remain, remove the action and inspect for all needed repairs/regulation, and 
then thoroughly clean the piano before replacing with new elbows. Does this 
sound like a good starting point? Thanks all!
