Richard, It's tough to out-guess this kind of problem from a distance, but there are a couple of things that make it simple. With your goal and the customers' the same, (no leaky dampers), and your obvious willingness to spend "mucho" hours, cut your losses and keep the customer happy: Replace the dampers (if they really follow) for the price, at retail, of the new felts. Your investment will be little compared to what you've already done. Your mark-up will help soften the blow to your pocketbook, and the service will likely help the customer decide to have more maintenence and repair in the future. Better piano, more satifaction. Win-win. Guy Nichols, RPT At 01:01 AM 8/28/00 -0400, you wrote: >.
