---------------------- multipart/mixed attachment List, I'm doing a bit of damper regulation and lyre repair on an old Fischer grand. While the glue joints between the lyre posts to the pedal box were already pretty loose, and readily disassembled with a few wacks to the interior of the pedal box, the glue joints of the posts at the top are only slightly loose (one is almost rock solid). As you can see the posts' dowels don't go all the way through to the lyre top block. If they did I could just support the top block, pound on the dowels, and drive them out. Putting the posts in a vice and wacking on the block with a rubber hammer hasn't done much either. Is there any likelihood that, since the dowels couldn't be wedged & glued as they were in the pedal box, the post dowels are secured by horizontal dowels underneath some veneer? How can they be this tight without a wedge or dowel? I know some of you do this often -- helpful hints for quick disassembly?
