[pianotech] Bridge repair

[Pierre Pouliot]

Sorry no photos and I lost track of this piano after I delivered it 600
miles away.  But If I had pictures, I would have checked my beckets before
posting it... ;)

I've sometimes contemplated doing a similar thing in a grand and wondered
just how I could work around the problems of access.  For example, I have a
Steinway D that I work on, no budget for a complete job, but a treble
section that could really use a recapping and a budget for that.  I've sat
and stared at it on several occasions wondering if I might want to take that
on and how I might do it.  I'd be curious to see pictures of this particular
job--ok, it's a Lester, but the principles are the same.  I've developed
some of my own ideas on it but haven't quite talked myself into it yet.

For customer budget reason, I once had only the treble section of the bridge
recapped. Witout removing the plate, I manages to carefully cut the bridge
at the notch (under the plate post).  The removed bridge section was about
as long  as bass bridge.  I was very pleased with the final result. It was a
big Lester.  In this piano it was an easy job.
