Brian, Glenn Hart water gilded a whole piano. He had pictures of it in his tool booth. If I recall correctly, it was an S&S grand with carving.

I should have consulted Mr. Webster... gilding, ... guilding... Sorry about that. Would that be a Freudian slip? :-) But thanks for the input. FWIW, does anybody do any gilding in any of their piano work? Plate? Case trim? Hardware? Just curious. I've never done any of it, but it's on my "to-try-someday-when-I-have-time" list. (I enjoy clock making, and can think of a couple of projects that might be neat to explore.) Brian Trout Quarryville, PA btrout@desupernet.net
