Restoring Kieselhost Player Piano
By Gary Stevenson

I am currently in the beginning stages of restoring a Kieselhost player
piano.  I would be interested in any information that MMDers might
shared as to the restoration of the player action.  It is a very early
double-valve 88-note action with a wooden tracker bar, pouch-leather
covered pneumatics and no automatic tracker mechanism.

I am just getting started on this restoration and am looking for
someone who might currently be restoring a like action or someone
who can share helpful information unique to this action.  Historical
information is welcome too.

Thanks in advance for your help.
