Listers, I know I should get out more, but yesterday I saw something gnu. Older Estonia grand (made in USSR days) had kerfing at, and crossing the bottom of the bridge, about 5-6mm deep, which extended for about three or four unisons either side of the top struts. The bridge also makes gentle S bends there to lessen big length jumps. Why the kerfing? Any other makes do/did this?

Let no such man be trusted. ---Wm. Shakespeare - Merchant of Venice
