Veneer is cracked and pieces missing from the curved tops of the arms and from the toes. (The liver and spleen seem okay, though).</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>What is a recommended source for wide, 2 or 3 inch, veneer strips?</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>My piano, under the cracked old finish is a beautiful red mahogany -- I THINK -- and I'm wondering how to choose the veneer type and how to match the staining. Hints and ideas most welcome!</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Thanks,</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Alan Barnard</DIV> <DIV>Salem, Missouri</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <P></P></BODY></HTML>
