? Hi Mike
? The board will remain in it's original & intact self. It sounded quite good before tear down.? This is a historic preservation piece.? I don't do that often but hey if it ain't broke don't fix it (?or modify it.)

Dale,

??? Nice pictures, don't let the United States Navy see that cast iron plate, they'll want it for an anchor. Are you duplicating the original soundboard with the ribs as they are???? Mike

Hi All
? Dennis & I finally tore down the? Julius Bauer 6 ft. A truly amazing piece of engineering from antiquity. I have such respect for this man. Analyzing?his pianos sound board system & how it is constructed is truly fascinating. I consider him as much a pioneer (wild man) as Jonas Chickering.?
