Repairing Warped Frame of a Barrel Piano
By Jack Haberman

Hi All,  I am looking for suggestions on how to repair a warped sound
board on an old (1850s?) street barrel piano.  The top part of the
frame has been bowed by the tension of the strings, causing the sound
board to bow out and press against the strings.  Any help would be
greatly appreciated.
