Thanks, Carl,=20
Obviously, Terry has never lived in a really low-humidity locale and
had a piano come in from somewhere like Florida, or Houston for that
matter, that had been there for many years! :-) I have!=20

Well, Terry, when I lived in Florida the humidity was about 175%. =
Okay I'm
eggszagerating, but I wouldn't call it a dry heat. So if you move =
the piano
to a drier locality, it loses weight. Cracks open up and you gotta =
fill
them. I think I'd use left over hanging chads with some west =
systems epoxy
to fill the holes, drive the pins in wet and tune it before the =
epoxy gets
too hard. Okay, not the first choice for high end work. (Gotta =
pull your
chain every chance I get, (G).)
