Hi Ron,
I see a scaling mess where the speaking lengths
of the fourth and fifth notes from the left hand
strut have the wrong speaking lengths (top
image). This piano will definitely have a tuning
stability problem. There's a paddock full of this
stuff out there, and I think its worse that it
was now that manufacturers are mostly using CNC
for bridge drilling.
The bottom image has so many errors its hard to
see where the curve might be. What a mess.
Ron O.
