Repinning....Can I pullease get more responses?

I don't haul actions through the rain. Ever. If it even hints at raining, I reschedule. (This is especially true since my tunemobile is a pick-em-up truck.)

Second. It depends on the customer, your personality, etc.. There's no right answer. BUT for a complete action workover of any sort, I take it to the bench. If I'm doing major work like stringing or hammer hanging, I will do it in the home because I'm really not set up to haul pianos around. BUT even the nicest people get tired of company. I'd recommend using your judgment and communicating frankly with the piano owner. Sometimes, I've arranged to work while the owner is out of town or at work or having the cat's toenails sharpened, or whatever.

I will be undergoing a repinning project on a client's grand.  The "G" Piano Works guide says it takes 4 hours.  Is it appropiate to do this project in the client's home, or do I need to take the action with me and do it in the shop?  If I take the action with me, that brings up another question.  If it's raining, how do you all prepare and protect the grand action??


Thanks!
Matthew
