Caring For The Piano, But Also The Piano Technician w/ Steve Brady, RPT
Our guest for this episode, Steve Brady, finds that the CA glue used in many technical situations is a little invasive for our bodies.
Have you noticed that about the glue too?
Steve has grown sensitive to CA glue (a.k.a. Crazy Glue or Super Glue) and only uses it when it's absolutely essential, like for repairing hairline defects. And even then, he uses a respirator to avoid the fumes getting into his nose.
He further explains how to appropriately use glue for pins, syringes for controlling the flow of cement, and so much more.
Tune into this episode and learn more about strings, tuning, working on verticals, and protocols for fine hammer fitting.
