You can make these broaches yourself with music wire, as others have said.  It is just convenient to use the pre-made ones. <blockquote type=cite class=cite cite>  I guess Kawai imported from Japan are in metric system, or are some made in the U.S. ?</blockquote> Kawai actions are all made in Japan, and use metric pins.  I don't find that there is a problem repinning with US pins.  You just have to ream and burnish for the correct fit. <blockquote type=cite class=cite cite>P.S.
