<div class="Section1">
<p class="MsoNormal"><font face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial">Hi all. Customer has a 109 year old Kimball upright. (Why do I keep working on these things??) I’m pretty sure it has a crack along the bottom row of tuning pins and am wondering if a CA treatment would fill in the crack (and pinholes) enough to hold the pitch. The customer understands that a restringing/new pinblock is what’s really needed (or a bonfire).</span></font></p>
