---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment I am restringing a S&S Steinway Square grand, circa 1860. When I took of the bass strings, they coiled up as if they were brand new. I figured someone had twisted these babies several times, and that is why they still had a lot of coil in them. But then today I took the rest of the strings off, and the same thing happened The longest strings had an enormous amount of coil left in them. I have never seen this before, even in 1900's Steinway, or any other piano. Any one know why this might be? I am having a problem getting the plate out. All the screws out, but it seems to be stuck, especially on the right side. I did get a wood shim out from underneath the rim, where the plate recesses under the rim. There is another shim I have to try to get out. But other than that, I can't see what's holding the plate down. Anyone with some helpful advice?
