<BR>You can use the thin CA glue without removing the strings or the pins, but you'll have to tip the piano on it's back. Just put a few drops to the side opposite of where the string touches the pin, allow it to penetrate, and then zap it. If you can't tip the piano on it's back, then you'll have to loosen the string and remove the pin. Squirt a couple of drops of CA glue in the hole, spray some kicker on the pin, and drive the pin in the hole. That will tighten the pin.

<BR>Good luck.
