[pianotech] Lyre Damage

[Greg Newell]

Yeah but you still roll the corner of the bottom corner of the lyre. I know,
I know. You personally never do.

I always use a lyre brace since a brand new chinese one broke its lyre when
I was tipping.  No problems since.   

 

You can by one from QRS or you can make your own.

 

length of steel electrical conduit

length of all-thread that just fits inside

a matching nut and washer

a length of 2x2

self adhesive felt lamp bottom covers

some type of flexible adhesive like PL400

 

cut the 2x2 into two reasonable lengths and drill one corner to accept
conduit/all-thread and adhesive

apply the self adhesive felt to the business sides of the 2x2s and you have
an adjustable brace.

Hello Garrett,

 

     I never tip a Oriental  Grand Piano on the Lyre.

I tip all  American  Pianos except  one, that  being

the H.C.Bay.

   

     Weak  wood  is always  weak  wood.

I have repaired too many pedal Lyres.

 

 

Regards

Jack Wyatt
