I'd be curious why anyone would use that pattern?!

List,

Thought some of you might like to see these pics.   I just finished plugging over 400 holes(I know that key replacement should have been considered, but it is not possible for this customer), and that was after I left what I hope to be a basic starting weight pattern in the keys.  I just weighed the leads that came out.  To be honest, I was a little dissappointed  they only weighed 15 pounds.  Oh well.  I would be interested, though, to find out where that stands as far as bragging rights go.

 

Oh.  The key weighing was part of an S&S "B" rebuilding 10 years ago that included Renner Blues on shanks with a 16mm pin to knuckle measurement, pinblock replacement without glueing it in or fitting it to the flange and also pushed the plate back to shorten #88 to about 46 mm, delignit block with VERY tight pins and coils 10 to 12 mm above plate.  This piano is just a joy!  :-(

 

Back to the grindstone.
