John,

The best thing I can recommend is Hot Stuff gap filling glue. It will =
grab the ABS fine, and will give you a little time to settle the dampers =
in position. Just be sure you have the solvent handy so that you don't =
become an accessory item permanently fastened to the action, and be sure =
the damper is well aligned before you move on to the next note.

PVC-E works well for gluing felt and wood to ABS, but I have not tried =
it for ABS to ABS - let me know if you do try it.

  Hi:=20
  I am back on this list.  I would like an opinion from a piano tech who =
has experience with glueing plastic dampers to plastic damper wire =
blocks.  What is the best glue for this purpose.  I have a whole set to =
replace on a piano which was vandalized in a University practice room.  =
The whole set of dampers and damper levers were torn to pieces along =
with about half of the hammer butts, shanks and hammers..  I have been =
off the list for a while as my modem went bad and I also changed my IP =
account.  Thanks in advance,   John Freeman
