Seek Lead Tubing For Tracker Bar
By Mike Walter

Hi all!  I am looking for a source of "tracker bar" lead tubing that
will fit on regular rubber tracker bar style tubing.  I am involved
in rebuilding a Welte system which was put into a 1926 Kurtzman grand.
It is probably an after-market installation, because there are a number
of "strange" adaptations that are not used on normal Welte installations,
I have been told.

There is a frame which is mounted above the stack through which all
of the tubing must go.  The original lead tubing rotted out.  Normal
tracker bar tubing will not fit through the frame.

Since everything is squeezed so tightly under the piano near the stack,
it is best to try to restore it to its original state, therefore I am
looking for a supply of lead tracker bar type tubing.  Thank you for
any and all leads!

Best wishes,

Mike Walter
