In a message dated 96-12-30 07:50:18 EST, you write: << I have a client who has a Kimball grand/high gloss finish whose plys of wood that make up top cover of piano has separated approx. 12 " in each direction from one corner. (This is the part of the piano that covers music desk, tuning pins, etc.) 'Any suggestions as to kind of glue, clamping, etc. for repair? >> Ashley, How old is this piano? Check to be sure the warranty has run out before you start attempting repairs. If not, contact Roger Weisensteiner (sp?) at Kimball. He is covering all warranty service. BTW, is this the front of the lid? I'm not exactly sure of which piece you're describing. Before starting a repair, you might also want to try to determine why this piece has delaminated. It could make a difference in how you go about preventing the same thing from happening again, further or in another area (boy, that could be hard to explain to the customer!).
