Giovanni,<br><br>Funny you'd send this today... I just replaced my first spinet elbow this afternoon. The snap-on Vagias elbows are a piece of cake. Just unscrew the old one from the lifter rod and screw on the new one, squeeze the remains in the wippen with pliers to crush it into bits, then snap the new one in. Thirty cents for parts and about one minute for labor. <br><br>Paul<br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 4/23/07, <b class="gmail_sendername">Giovanni Voltaggio</b> <<a href="mailto:gvpiano@sbcglobal.net">gvpiano@sbcglobal.net</a>> wrote:</span><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;"> <div style="">I've never done an elbow.<div><br></div><div>Giovanni</div><div><span class="e" id="q_1121f6cfb7ae9450_1"><div><br></div><div><br><div><div>On Apr 23, 2007, at 11:35 AM, Steve Blasyak wrote:</div><br><blockquote type="cite"> <div> <br></div><div>Hey Now,</div> <div> </div> <div>Well I tried this once before and all worked out well.
