This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Hello George So far as I know there are absolutely no spares for this Irish from = Shannon piano. Joe Garrett said he'd got one which was in need of a = replacement action and, like me, he had already replaced the keyset with = conventional wood keys - and for the same reason you have found. I found = that when trying to swap round any of those "R" push-in flanges they = broke. The action flanges are just the same. Total loss really, George. = I'd drop it if I were you. Tell your client from me he/she would save = his/her piano tech much headache and trouble were it to be replaced. = Better off with an old bird-cage upright - at least the parts are still = available. Sorry!

The action worked eratically at best. = Again I agree the idea probably was good but the plastic at the time was = of poor quality with today's standards. In my latest attempts on = repairing I found that most of the clips attaching the key to the frame = were all broken on one side only. I changed several around but gained = little. I also found the jacks stiff, added proteck worked well for ten = times on the eleventh probably missed ..frustration very difficult to = get a handle on. However, I would try my luck again if I could locate = some good clips. If anyone has any ideas do drop me a line. Nothing ventured Nothing gained.
