Dean, This sounds like a great idea, and I don't have to tilt the piano. Thanks Jerry Cohen -----Original Message----- From: pianotech-bounces@ptg.org [mailto:pianotech-bounces@ptg.org] On Behalf Of Dean May Sent: Sunday, August 08, 2004 9:40 PM To: Pianotech Subject: RE: Baldwin Hamilton loose side panel ProBond makes a urethane glue for a whole lot less than Gorilla brand urethane glue. Menards carries it. Urethane glue is activated by moisture, so squirt water down into the crack to wet the surfaces before adding the glue. To get glue down into the crack, drill a hole about an inch away from the crack down at an angle, so the bit comes out into the crack 2-3 inches below the surface. Inject glue into your new hole, either from a syringe or directly from the bottle. Make sure your hole is sized so the syringe tip or glue bottle tip will form a good seal. You will be able to see the glue fill the crack and this technique will get way more glue down there than any other method I know of. Drill several holes along the crack. You'll get a feel for how far apart to space your holes to fill up the crack.
