Chines and multi-piece rims

[Calin Tantareanu]

Hi Del,

Why are you going to use this design in your new 200 cm grand? This seems
similar to the old Bechsein A case.
I thought modern piano design was favouring the continous rim.
What are the advantages/disadvantages of each?

Thanks,

Calin Tantareanu
