Rebuiding and Restoration- Installing the pinblock part 1

May 27th, 2011 by barry


We have completed rebronzing the plate, the pinblock has been drilled and cut and planned to fit the case . Now we need to put the plate in the piano and dry fit the pinblock with the plate in the piano, we only use a select few bolts in the piano and screws in the pinblock to get a test fit. After the plate is lowered into the piano, the bolt and screws are tighten down to get a good read on the measurements. Like at the capo bar at note 88( this is a V bar the string pass under to the tuning pin)also the plate height from the shoulder. The goal we are wanting to get the plate back in it’s oringinal position. the video will show how we get the plate in the piano.
