I was pleasantly surprised at the very good attention to detail and execution of his work. I am referring to a small Kimball grand piano he has put a new pin block in, restrung and refinished. Well done Dan! "It is better to keep your mouth closed and let people think you are a fool than to open it and remove all doubt." Mark Twain E. J.

Was just about to search that old post as you posted this. Jim Ialeggio Jim Ialeggio www.grandpianosolutions.com advanced soundboard and action redesigns 978 425-9026 Shirley Center, MA

It's been so generous of him to share some of his knowledge with me. Hello Jim, If you want any info on the (pin block rig) I am glad to share what I've done. I found it to work quite well. Hello OperaTenor, On the seven pianos I've cut up I practiced a lot of different repairs on them before cutting them up, No regrets. Dan (Piano Tinkerer)
