This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment I'm not sure I understand what you are describing Marcel. The tuning = pins at one time were really tight - were they really tight after the = fire - they were still tight? Ok, so we removed them. Now the "original = pins do go through the block after removal. It seems removing the pins = really enlarge the hole...". Are you saying that after removing a tuning = pin it will fall through the hole in the pinblock? I do believe that = under normal circumstances that after removing a tuning pin and trying = to re-install it, one would find that it would have less torque, but it = certainly would not fall through the pinblock. Have you removed the = plate? I might be concerned about the condition of the pinblock - could = the fire have baked it in some unfortunate way? And if the pinblock got = hot enough to get damaged, what about the rest of the piano????? Or, maybe I'm misunderstanding you.
