Hello again - For those of you who entertain yourselves upon occasion with
refurbishing and old upright with a loose and cracked soundboard, I've come
up with a quick and easy method of regluing the ribs to the soundboard
before shimming that really seems to do the trick. I don't believe I've
ever seen it done this way before (that doesn't mean it hasn't been done
before - I just haven't seen it done [or don't remember seeing it done,
which at my age may be a more accurate way to put it]).

Anyway, click here<http://www.pianopromoproductions.com/resources/Schiller%202%20hi%20res.pdf>(I
hope the link works) for a photo set that highlights the process. The
soundboard of the piano in the photos is a 1000% more vibrant now than it
was before the procedure was done.  Chuck
