[pianotech] First Pinbock

[Noah Frere]

I'm about to replace my first Pinblock. It's on Mini Piano named Gerard,
and one can follow the progress here:

The pinblock severely pulled away from the posts. It is a 3/4 plate, and
there are large gaps behind the pinblock with no support. That's my current
concern. I had epoxied and bolted the pinblock a few years ago, and it held
for a couple years. My plan is to reread Chuck's Replacing the Pinblock
series which was published a couple years ago in the Journal (and which I
read at the time) and follow those steps. However, I believe[image: Inline
image 1] I will need to add supports, fill in those gaps between the posts.

Any glaring issues or recommendations from you experienced rebuilders
before I start?

Thanks!
