I am trying to re-spring a damper flange. I pulled back the sheath of the cord, cut, pulled the sheath back forward, applied some wood glue and worked the end into as fine a needle as i could, but alas, i could not get it all the way through the hole in the flange. About halfway through, the cord starts bunching at the entrance hole and loses rigidity. Then i applied some thin CA and Accelerator, which made it too thick, so I sliced it thinner using a razor, reapplied the CA and Accelerator, and was able to get the cord trough all the way since it was thin, but then it wouild go no further, since the angle was too great at the entrance to the flange. When i tried to pull it through with tweezers it just shredded. So, I tried again, the standard way, to no avail. It just is not needly enough and/or hard enough. Anyone? -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: <http://ptg.org/pipermail/pianotech.php/attachments/20100211/d1ec6706/attachment.htm>
