cleaning action stack

Find a good grand with a cracked plate that is going to be scraped. Remove the keybed and make yourself a perfect bench for regulating. Mine is from a Steinway with a flat keybed.

  Question: 

  Are bowling alley lanes slightly "crowned"?  Mine seems to be which makes bench regulating impossible.  Maybe time to get a new hunk...Where does one find such a thing.  This one here came with the shop...

  Well,  same here.  Except my Dad just delivered a couple of sections of bowling alley to me at Christmastime.  The size is great for action work.  Plenty of room for the key frame, action stack behind, place for tools/supplies as well, both on the side and still some room at the front/back.  I've not had a chance to strip off the wax, etc. yet, but am planning on refinishing these sections when I get one of those things, what are they called, "roundtoits"?

  That looks real nice!  I'm also impressed with how nice and clean and shiney your work bench is :>)  I have a 30 year old piece of )(*&( bowling alley board about 7' long!

  Hi List,

  I posted last week about a dirty stack from an "M" that I just took in that 
  I wanted to clean.  Just thought I'd post my results.
