> Can the pin be driven slightly deeper in to the block? Jon, The offending pins were driven in as much as possible. >If the pins are slightly loose, does the tuning hold reasonably? If so there is no need to change just to get a tighter feeling pin. The pins held, but I was concerned about the future. I guess I'm doing the borderline pins out of fear of a long lasting situation. I am reconditioning this grand to put it up for sale, so that's the concern. But you are right, I should only replace the ones that don't hold at all. I used CA on another old upright with excellent results, but I thought larger pins were a better fix. Guess not in every case considering the circumstances. >What size pins came out and what size pins were you putting back in? Number 1/0 (.276") came out and 2/0 (.286") are going in. Thanks for your advice! Larry Trischetta
