Hi David.

There is Besbrode in Leeds (UK).

I think he gets replica parts from Poland.

Subject: Replacing a missing piano lyre


| I ran into an old Weber Grand that (aside from the likelihood it will be
| turned over to Piano Protective Services due to severe abuse and
| malnutrition) is missing a lyre.  I'm trying to figure out approximate time
| to install and fit, make supports etc., and where I should go to get one. 
| What are the critical dimensions to consider?  What's the best method for
| securing it to the underside of the piano?  Though I have repaired many, I
| don't think I've ever had to buy, alter and fit one from scratch.  Any
| suggestions would be appreciated.
