If you don't already have them there are a couple of items I would suggest. One is the book, "Player Piano Servicing and Rebuilding" by Art Reblitz. It was published by Vestal Press. I understand some people have had a problem obtaining a copy lately, but Art was at the Chicago MBSI convention selling the book. You might drop him a note. His address is:

   Art Reblitz
   P.O. Box 7392
   Colorado Springs CO 80933

He also wrote a useful book, "Piano Servicing Tuning and Rebuilding".

You should also obtain a catalog from The Player Piano Company.

   Player Piano Co., Inc.
   704 East Douglas
   Wichita, Kansas 67202

   Tel. (316)263-3241

Happy Restoring,
Howard Wyman
