Post by ciao_accordionreally enjoying the step by step
It will take about an hour to fit all the keys to the new spindle. After
that putting the damper pads for under the keys. Then I will put them
back in the keyboard and start cutting the pads. Then wax the pallets on
the key rods with the new pads. Then making sure all the pads are seated
and don't leak.
I think then I will re-wax the reeds and put new bellows frame gaskets,
and it will be ready to play. Re-taping the bellows is on the agenda.
The hard work was getting the old spindle out and fitting the new one.
All the mechanical work will be detailed in the next pages.
