The plate was hoisted in the air on a wench when a strap gave out. So, the
plate was dropped flat on a concrete floor from maybe 5 feet! There are 2
struts snapped clean.

 I believe that if its a clean break it could be lock-n stiched. This system 
works by pulling the pieces together with a special threaded fastners( the 
stich)  in conjunction with a piece they install across the break called a loch. 
This guy (Gary) has fixed some high profile items , the liberty bell for one & 
multitudes of pricey heavy duty machinery, capital domes etc.
 Its worth the call. If you don't fix it then sell me the piano wholesale & 
I'll fix it. A Mason AA is too hot of property to discard. Some swear they weld 
such things but welding cast iron is trickey & problematic.
