<DIV>Hi Terry,</DIV>
<DIV>Carding is a term some used in place of filing. English , Canada, Australia
others?</DIV>
<DIV>First learned of it in an old song where the line was ;carding the wool'
and they were reffering to combing out the trash, weeds, what</DIV>
<DIV>ever, so the wool could be used to make thread.,</DIV>

<DIV> Last year
I was given an old Janssen upright that was just fine. It has age issues,
but it plays and some beginner kid would probably like it. I
<EM><STRONG>had</STRONG></EM> wanted to throw a regulation on it and card
and voice the hammers and sell it. </DIV>
<DIV> However, my husband
fell onto the front of it and broke the one action bracket.
Is the only way to fix this to remove it and drill holes to put a splint on
it, (on 2 sides)? Can it be repaired? It didnt affect it's
playing, should I just continue on with regulation and sell it...for
less of course than I originally wanted to get for it?...What will/can
happen if I just dont repair it? </DIV>
