Hi, Lance-

I have a paper Ken Eschete wrote on something like this.  Is that the =
method you use?

When you do this, do you repin with the same size pins, or is it =
possible to go to a smaller size?

A friend of mine has an old Bechstein with open face pinblock which has =
been restrung with #5 pins.  I would like to go back to #1 pins in this =
piano.

Does this method give a smooth tuning result...and how long do you =
suppose it lasts?

If I think of any more questions, I'll let you know!

Thanks!

Ed

  I have 2 Steinway uprights (early 1900's) and plan to inject water =
thin optical epoxy (EPOTEK), redrill and restring.  I have done this on =
several uprights and grands where replacing was not an option.  Works =
great.  Nice feel.
