  Hi John,

  Welcome to the strange world of piano techs! :-)

  I always use carpenter's glue because I carry some in a contact lens case in my kit. One of my fingers does the application.

  A number of glues would work well, though. PVC-E would also work well. You can get it in the craft section of Walmart. "Sobo" is one name brand I think, and there are a couple others. These two glues are good to keep in your car for when you need 'em.

    Hey guys--
    I'm a beginner at the piano tech scene. I've started Randy Potter's course
    (in 5 shipments, I've only received the first two). My mother in law has a
    piano at her church that has some felt loose. It's a Baldwin Hamilton. The 
    lid and music desk are connected as one piece that lifts up. The felt is on
    the underside of the music desk where it would be above the fall board that
    covers the keys. (I suppose to protect the top of the fallboard from 
    scraping the music desk.) It has come off of part and hangs out where it can
    be seen. Can I glue it back in place? With what? Where can I get it?
    Thanks,
    John Cole
