Brass but plates

[John Ross]

The butt plates can be bought from Schaff.
Also repair clips. Page 99 
I don't like the repair clips.
I prefer to cut out a section of the rail, and install a repair flange.

  Greetings, 

              On an old upright, instead of flanges on the ends of the hammer butts there is a brass plate system of attatchment to the action rail. If the corners of the brass plate in the paino are broken off, can one replace the entire brass butt plate? In a shop, Are they easy to remake?How many hours would this job take?
