Max's Method for replacing regular cloth bush of hammer piano with 3mmPVC (bush)
on: August 12, 2023, 05:04:07 AM
Max's Method for replacing regular cloth bushings of hammer piano with 3mm PVC (bush) spacers, known as "kembrick," is a technique that involves using a cylindrical PVC with a 1mm hole. This hole is intended to accommodate the installation of a metal pin for hammer installation into flanges there.
Here is a step-by-step description of the Max's Method:
1 Measure and identify the locations where the cloth bushings of the piano hammer are to be replaced with PVC kembricks.
2 Prepare the necessary tools and materials, including PVC kembricks, metal pins, hammer of upright piano, and any other required equipment.
3 Remove the existing old cloth bushings by carefully extracting them from the flanges of the upright piano. Use appropriate tools and techniques to ensure no damage is caused to the surrounding parts.
4 Clean the flanges and ensure that no debris or residue from the old cloth bushings remains.
5 Carefully position the PVC kembrick in the flange of upright piano's hammer, aligning it with the desired location.
6 Gently press into the PVC kembrick into the flange, ensuring that it is properly seated and aligned there.
7 Verify that the metal pin can be pressed into the hole of hammer between two PVC bushes without causing any damage or bending to the pin or PVC bushes.
8 Set hammer inside into between two PVC bushes. Press into the metal pin so it connects on the hammer's hole located between two PVC bushes of flanges there.
9 Conduct a final inspection to ensure the successful replacement of the cloth bushings with PVC kembricks.
10 Test how work the hammer of upright piano there now.
By following the Max's Method, you can effectively replace the regular cloth bushings with 3mm PVC kembricks and install metal pins for hammer installation into flanges after.
