cracks in rim

[Greg Newell]

Barbara,

I doubt that it will make a huge difference to 
the ear of your customer unless their one of your 
high end clients. If so I would simply invert the 
piano and soak epoxy into the crack. It might 
help. Are you fixing a sound problem or a cosmetic problem?

best,
Greg
