Plastic elbows

[PAT A RALPH]

Charly, snap on elbows are available cost about $16.00 and rubber grommets
should be in similiar ball park (haven't ordered any recently).  Do you not
have a catalogue from any supply houses?

You do need to check and see if their are any other plastic parts, like
hammer flanges, whippen flanges, jack and jack flanges, damper flanges.  If
it just has plastic damper flanges, replacing the other parts, you have a
"usuable" piano.
