> *Why not just glue all the felts you have back on? * -- I am still considering this option, but being that there are about 7 missing felts, once I find salvaged hammers that fit, match/drill/glue those hammers *in place* (and glue/clamp the 12 lifting felts), or pull the whole thing and take it to the shop, the cost could be well on way towards a new set of hammers, AND with the added risk that that rest of the hammers could fail at any time. Plus, this client actually seems interested in doing the job right. It's just giving me a bit of whiplash that I found a spinet owner interested in doing any piano repair job right. A bit off the topic, has anyone here ever done a full rebuild on a spinet? -kurt -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
