I apologize to those that are trying to keep current on their pianos or waiting for a piano deal to come over the wire. I have just finished course work for my business degree and it has kept me plenty busy writing final papers and the like. Now that I am done, I can again spend more time in updating what takes place during the day in our restorations.
In regards to our current projects: We have been refinishing a Winter upright. It has posed some challenges in terms of repairing damage but we finally got all of the affected spots patched with new wood or veneer and have it sanded and stained. I will get some pictures up here shortly. It is finally ready for final finishing coats including sealer, toner and final lacquer coats.
Our other project in the making is a Baldwin Hamilton that we will be transforming from a walnut with brass hardware to a ebony with nickel hardware. This piano is mostly stripped and nearly ready for final sanding and grain filler. Again, pictures will be coming soon.
