Fixing up the action

                      Hide Glue is used to fix most of the wooden or felt parts of a piano.
                 I pulled the action out to see if there was anything that needed attention.
             The Hammer rail felt needs replacing and  some broken cords that needed to be fix.

There were 4 places that had needed news cords to hold down the whippen

Using the hide glue and some cord (similar in size to the old one) that I found lying around, I glued the new cord to the action, let it dry and then pushed the metal hook under the looped cord.

And then the old back check needed to be scraped off and the new one glued on.

The next post will be about changing the strings and taking the dampers off.
