Hank,<br>The Quarter grands I've seen have three or so sections of pinblock machine screwed<br>to the underside of the plate. I have not seen any brass flanges on a grand like there<br>are on some old Chickering uprights.

<br>Dear fellow tech's,<br> I am biding a rebuilding job on a 1906 Chickering quarter grand from<br>out of state. My question is to all, does this model have the brass<br>whippen flanges and the brass hammer shank flanges? Also, does this
<br>model have a sectioned pinblock? Since I can't look at the piano, I<br>thought maybe someone might have some info on this model. If there is<br>anything else that might be unusual about this model, please speak up. I
<br>have worked on these before, but it's been a long time. Thanks!<br><br>Hank<br><br><br></blockquote></div><br>
