cutting the soundboard

March 13, 2010

with all the strings and the harp (which is the heaviest part of the piano for certain) removed we began to cut into the soundboard, pinblock, and surrounding wood.  we cut the piano into 3 pieces, eventually resulting in 3 diferently sized and shaped instruments.  many, many thanks to open space’s technician, dallas, who is much more skilled with the circular and jig saws than i.

below are two of the three cut soundboards waiting to be strung, etc.
