<BLOCKQUOTE

style="BACKGROUND-COLOR: transparent" face=Arial color=#000000 size=2>I know
some dedicated, experienced rebuilders who will<BR>have nothing to do with
this list, specifically<BR>because of the mockery they would endure; citing
you. <BR>One has re-crowned dozens of boards, starting off<BR>flat, and ending
up with as much as a half inch crown.<BR>He claims, and I believe him,
that they produce a <BR>warm, rich, wonderful sound. I am learning to
emulate<BR>his techniques, but feel no need to share them: for<BR>the ridicule
you would heap on me.<BR> I heard wonderful things about
your piano at the<BR>Rebuilder's Gallery, and have no doubt that you are a
<BR>master at building new boards. Congratulations.<BR>
Now, if you would please show as much bigness of<BR>character as the bigness
of sound your instruments<BR>allegedly produce, and stop ridiculing those who
seek,<BR>for whatever reasons, other solutions, I would<BR>consider you a far
more successful human being. <BR><BR> Which is vastly more
important. <BR><BR> Peace,<BR>
