<html> Jack, It's OK with me if you declare the piano a total loss, and have them buy a new Kawai! :-) You will be better off removing the side and cleaning things up.  Take out the bottom board, action and keybed, remove the side from the back. After cleaning up splinters, carefully align the side again - it should be nearly flush with the rear facing panels top and bottom.  Match the other side exactly at the top - some models are even with the pinblock, others are not.  Once you get a good location, mark it all over the place to help get it back there. After taking the side off again, drill some small holes near the top and bottom, and install bridge pins point side out so that the point just barely sticks out the side (you can super glue or epoxy them into the holes).  Position the side panel according to your marks, and tap on it with a rubber mallet to leave marks in the side panel to help with alignment and keeping the side in position when clamping.  Then apply thick epoxy, put the panel on, and clamp it. Make sure the sides are parallel also - it could be easy to have the re-glued side angled out at the front if you only clamp at the back!  That would be a mess. Depending on the age of the piano, you might also want to call me at Kawai - if you are not comfortable doing this job, it could possibly be sent back to the factory in North Carolina and repaired there.  We did this with a UST-7 that had similar problems in a church a few years back.

It is a school piano that the kids dropped off the stage. The piano is fine, except for the side. The glue has come undone. Question, Do I insert glue and clamp or do I take the whole side off and clean off old glue and reglue? Also what kind of glue do I use? Thanks Jack</blockquote></html>
