I thought you were going to instruct bass wire changers to TWIST the wire in the direction of the winding to keep it from getting loose windings later. Critical!!

This video just says "I will sand them" There's nothing about gluing.

Is it going to ruin my piano

That looks nice for being that old.

Thanks!

Thanks good job!!"😉😉😉

Some of those repairs are very impressive. I think a customer would fall over from shock. Artistry.

It looks like they glued the two pieces back together and tried to use the metal wire to clamp it together until it dried. But the glue work failed for some reason. It should have been a very easy repair if the person knew what he was doing.

When I was 11 years old (I’m 75 now) my grandmother bought me a brand new Wurlitzer what they an apt size it was short one octive in mahagony and it had a beautiful sound I had it till I was married n expecting my first baby my grandmother said if I would this piano to my sister she would buy me the console Wurlitzer I saw in a piano store of course I agreed n we went over to the huge Wurlitzer place in Phila Pa cause they were having a big close out sale n I got piano I saw n it was $1800 n my grandmother paid $1400 I was thrilled I had it for a very long time but when I moved in with my daughter n family there wasn’t room so I sold it luckily to a friend when I was able I bought myself a Roland didgital piano in a black finish case has three pedals with bench n I’m perfectly happy with it plus no tunings twice a year but I still do miss that first Wurlitzer so that’s my history with Wurlitzer 🙋🏼‍♀️Pamela

Make sure you do this BEFORE you have it tuned

It sounds like an horror

I heard that applying alcohol would crack the keys

Как медленно...

So....what is the name of the attachment you put in your drill?

Nice

You need a brush with a finer tip. Even a large artist's paint brush will do.

Have you tried loosening the bass string and twisting the hitch pin by twisting it in the same direction as the coils

Oh so that screw! Thanks for help!

I really love your videos. I have learned a lot by watching them. I have a Wurlitzer 61 key piano that I plan to refurbish and make it play like new.

Piano brand:Zletermenn winketellan

We have a new piano now and almost the same pitch but c4 is still a bit higher but now its more out of tune but luckily it getting tuned next month

This sounds like my friend’s grand piano, for how everything sounds, and out of tune. The piano was painted cyan years back. It sounds like that from 0:10 to 0:25

Makes a world of a difference!

thanks a lot 😃

Tinngggg😂

Thats not even bad, i like the sound of that piano

your piano dropped its placenta

Painful ...

A purist would probably weigh the heaviest and lightest key to find th coefficient and then add to each standard weight or series of known coins weights to achieve the desired result. Anyway thanks for the video.

Is this for upright or grand pianos?

That piano is really not that bad.

GRADE D-?

Thanks for the tip sir! I was wondering would it work the same (especially with the balance) if I use a highlift jack, and maybe a piece of wood on the bottom and one on the top?

Amature

So, you don't need to replace the soring rail felt when doing this?

What size/spec is the drill bit please?

Haha - I laughed out loud at your discovery...you invented a new instrument!

Thank you very much.

Thanks for posting these videos, I've been considering becoming a piano technician so it's nice to see what you've done on the daily

Interesting video, thank you for sharing

416 Hz

You should have taken the pins out first in the crack area and then re drill and pin

I have an even more out of tune one

c is perfectly tuned to b, I am dead on the inside

OMG I've been struggling with this for years and thanks to your video I just fixed my Yamaha. Thank you so much!!

I dont get it why is it out of tune it sounds fine to me, just a bit old

Can you show a secondary video of how you reinsert the hammer and screw it in well? I am having difficulty with the hammer jacks being in the way while trying to screw it in ( I did get a jack wedge but I am thinking I am not using it correctly). When I try to screw the flange back in, I am met with a lot of resistance with the screw. Any tips of how to best hold the flange while screwing it back in, nad getting the jack to be out of the way would be appreciated!

Oh my... No way I would do that to any of my customer's piano. I would just suggest them to buy a new piano or to do a complete piano reconditioning and action parts replacement. Who would want to have a moldy piano in their living room? You can only remove some of the VISIBLE mold, you can never get rid of the rest.

Chickering? (I’m testing my ability to name a piano without seeing the fallboard.) 😄

Ultrasonic Cleaning: Has anyone tried? Put a loop in the bath and flex it back and forth then work the loop up the entire length of the string. Ultrasonic cleaner typically makes dirt "explode" out of things, eyeglass frames for instance.
