MessageThe Baldwin DVP 25 (Digital Vertical Piano) has a keyboard =
designed by FATAR (which as we all know manufactures STUDIOLOGIC =
Keyboards and a lot of Designer label digital instruments).

Baldwin , no longer supports their' old digital pianos, and although I =
managed to locate a resource for springs, keys are rare for this =
instrument. So I have to use what is available! The keys that are =
without springs,(three keys) have small cracks 1/4 inch nearby the =
spring wells at the end of the key assembly. Installation of the springs =
is impossible because of these cracks which allow the spring wells to =
spread.

I need a recommendation for a glue to use to fix these cracks!
Help

  I saw a Kranich and Bach baby grand with a string loop tied to a =
spring above the rep lever.  Is this what you are talking about?   I =
wish I had my digital camera with me.  I advised my client not to buy it =
 because I had no idea how to deal with the strings once they  broke and =
one was broken already and I suspected more would break in the first 100 =
hours of practice of their 10 and 12 year old.    ---ric=20

    Hello Jon.

       Herrburger Brooks built several types of=20
    actions.  Does yours have a repetition lever?
    If so please describe the repetition spring.
    What brand of Piano is it in? =20
    The devil is always in the details.
       =20
         In the late 20s an early 30s there were=20
    several grand actions built without  repetition
    levers. One made a pitiful attempt with a single
    loop spring.  But it never worked.

       This action model and others will be displayed=20
    in the new  Foundation  Museum  for the 2005
    Convention in K.C.=20
