I have NO band saw and am just a mere mortal also! Maybe I'll need to employ a local woodworker or if possible, send Terry the dimensions and he can whip them up.... Or not. It's up to Terry! But if the blocks are made per piano, then there is no other choice.</DIV> <DIV>Thanks,</DIV> <DIV>Larry Trischetta </DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV dir=ltr> <DIV id=IncrediOriginalMessage dir=ltr><I>-------Original Message-------</I></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV id=receivestrings> <DIV dir=ltr style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt"><I><B>From:</B></I> <A href="mailto:m_spreeman@hotmail.com">Michael Spreeman</A></DIV> <DIV dir=ltr style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt"><I><B>Date:</B></I> 12/1/2007 10:45:47 AM</DIV> <DIV dir=ltr style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt"><I><B>To:</B></I> <A href="mailto:pianotech@ptg.org">Pianotech List</A></DIV> <DIV dir=ltr style="FONT-SIZE: 11pt"><I><B>Subject:</B></I> RE: Need Bechstein cheekblocks...</DIV></DIV> <DIV> </DIV>Larry,<BR> <BR>The keyblocks of this piano are most likely custom fit, so if you were fortunate enough to find an "extra" set, they probably won't fit. When the piano is built, the keyblocks are actually one large piece, or on big key block if you will, which is cut into two and then fit into the specific piano. Nice tree btw.<BR><BR><BR> <DIV><EM><FONT color=#330033><FONT face="Geneva, Arial, Sans-serif" color=#330000>                Michael C.
