Hi all, After waiting six months for my shippers to deliver the piano
(yes, six months!) I received my Weber Duo-Art. While I'm ready to
dive deep into the restoration, it is unfortunately missing a few
parts. The good news is that _exactly_ two years before, I bought
a set of Duo-Art parts off eBay. The bad news is that the knobs from
the early Steinway that I bought aren't appropriate for the later Weber
that I just received.
When I received the piano there were a couple of plastic bags that the
movers threw around; the seller of the piano told me that he put the
missing parts in those bags. I might just be missing a couple of them,
but it's annoying to have to have to replace certain parts.
So, what I'm looking for and would like help from everyone is a set of
brass thumb knobs to replace the ones that are missing. I am writing
from work so I don't have the piano in front of me, but if my memory
serves correct I need 8 or 9 knobs!
The other part that is missing that I would like help on is the soft
pedal mechanism. I have the soft pedal, but it's not connected to
anything, nor do I see anything on the piano action to connect to it.
Can someone take a snap of that for me so I can at least see how it's
constructed? _If_ someone has this linkage left over from a grand that
they can spare, I would appreciate the parts!
