<DIV>Keith,</DIV>
<DIV>I'll not do that on this forum. However, if there is such interest, =
I'd
suggest you contact the Institute Committee and request such a class is =
needed.
I'll be happy to do it. I've offered it for the past ten years. I did a =
class on
repairs a few years back and it was poorly attended. If I did the class, =
the
convention would have to be on the West Coast. That way I could borrow =
one of my
clients Squares for the class. (With major insurance and assurances!) =
The last
time we had the National (read International), in Portland, I did an =
overview
class on Square Pianos & Bird-Cages. That class is on video tape. =
And, I
think it's available from Potter.</DIV>
<DIV>I would need at least three hours for such a class in order to give =
the
subject matter proper coverage. K?</DIV>
<DIV>Best Regards,</DIV>
