List, This is a follow-up to a subject that appeared in July this year on the Pianotech List. It was about using shrink tubing to prevent bridle tapes from sliding down on certain Baldwin vertical pianos that have a different style bridle wire than the conventional type that exist on most vertical pianos. I made a short video demonstrating this process for those interested. Piano Stuff, Mr. Mac's Piano Service, Shawnee, Oklahoma, USA Thanks to Scott for the great idea to resolve this situation.
