Rebushing (was Re: Transporting a Grand Action)

[Matthew Todd]

It is a Baldwin Grand.  I do not have the clients info in front of me to let you know more specs.
   
  I thing I am going to be addressing is the evenness throughout the keyboard.  Needs work.
   
  Other things about this piano need addressing later on, but I am here to work with my clients budget.
   
  I apologize if my previous e-mail made it sound like I may not be sure what I am doing.  Besides, if I hired a mentor to come look at the situation, I would need to put the added cost to the customers bill, and I had already given him my quote :-).  It was just a curious question, because I surely would be the first to opt out of rebushing.
   
   
  Thanks,
  Matthew

    Matthew,  Could you tell us a bit more about the piano? Are the center pins wandering right out of the flanges? Are flanges frozen? Is this a 10 year old Samick or a 75 year old Aeolian stencil grand? How's everything else about this piano? 
  And do you have a mentor you have can take a look at the action before you get to work?

  When you repin, when do you decide to rebush the flange as well.  Unless, of course, you damage the bushing during repinning, how do you decide to rebush the entire set?
