<body>Got a 1916 Steinway upright that's definitely an oldie but moldy -- all flanges practically seized up with mold in the bushings. Rather than rebushing everything or replacing the flanges (super expensive!), has anyone had success just reaming and repinning?<br/><br/>BTW previous tech(s) had put large lead weights near the back of all the keysticks (2-ouncers, I'd guess) AND screwed jiffy leads to most of the stickers! Must have played like a Mack truck .... with its power steering broken ...... and both front tires flat .... on a sand dune!<br/><br/>Alan Barnard<br/>Salem, MO<br/></body>
