[CAUT] slipping key slip

[G Cousins]

Perhaps a crazy idea but...Take a pair,extra or a set off the bone yard supply, of the cheek block key guide pin plates ( plain and flat rather than the Steinway design) and mortise them into both ends of the key slip.  Sure it's more work but would provide a more (?) permanent repair.
Just a thought.

So do I. I don't know who did it, it works, but it's not pretty and looks 
fragile. The double inlay looks professional.
