7/32" Player Piano Tubing at Schaff Piano Supply
By Richard Vance

Craig Brougher is to be congratulated for spearheading the effort
to get Schaff Piano Supply to carry 7/32" tubing.  As Craig said,
Schaff has consistently stocked the best quality tubing in other sizes.

That size tubing I got from another supplier was indeed terrible
stuff.  It has so much plasticiser in the compound that it looks and
feels greasy, and it pops off the nipples of its own accord, no matter
how carefully routed.

People rebuilding later model Orchestrelles take note -- those
instruments use almost 200 feet of 7/32" [5.5 mm] tubing.  I have
placed a preliminary order for 500 feet this morning.
