Problem is that lyre braces were removed to install PianoDisc, leaving no place for OEM or supply house braces.  (The control unit under the piano is attached to where the braces normally would be.)  There are two screws that hold the lyre in place.  Without the braces, they have, of course, stripped out the wood. I have two ideas, but don't know if the first one will work long term. 1) There is plenty of room to add two additional screws.  That's easy enough to do, but I'm wondering if those two extra screws will give enough support for the lyre.  The two existing screws are toward the front side of the lyre block.  Adding the two extra screws toward the back of the block might work, but I don't know for sure.  Any guesses? 2) The other thing is to design some metal braces to go around the control unit and screw onto the wood above it.  That is doable, but they would have to be welded, and the design of which would take significantly more head-scratching.  And trips to a machinist/welder. What else am I missing?  Any other options or recommendations? Thanks, JF </blockquote></div>
