Ken,

Hubbard (MA) has Delrin, possibly leather plectra, and wire. 978-443-3417
reaches them, also they're online at http://hubharp.com/ ; so is the Instrument
Workshop (OR), at http://fortepiano.com, or 800 442 6038 - and they have an
online catalog.

Zuckerman probably sells it too.

The wire Schaff stocks is thin music wire and yellow brass; these are not always
appropriate replacements.

You get quill from dead crows; I didn't have the stomache to pluck the smelly
carcass I got once as a present, though.

If the Baldwin needs replacement parts such as jacks, you might contact Kaeser
Instruments (CT). They will make custom jacks from a sample.
http://www.synderblox.com/kaeserinstruments/index.html or 1-860-599-2640.

Hope this helps.

Clark
