Haha, Nice one.

[@Irish_Mann]

Probably

[@jiffy7]

got too many organs

[@fatitankeris6327]

F#... Fis

[@variator7466]

I've never seen a nut like that. And I work in a workshop.

[@hoguemr]

I also thought that was really cool. Purpose made fasteners are super cool

[@claytonharding]

Yeah, I thought the same. They look pretty slick, though. Probably prevents over tightening.

[@oliverheaviside2539]

@@claytonharding It allows you to use a long screw driver to tighten it from straight above.

[@claytonharding]

@oliverheaviside2539 Oh, you're definitely right. I just meant apposed to nut drivers, which in my experience are used often for similar aplications, and can apply much more torque.

[@martinezjose6157]

What melody did you play at the end, can you make a tutorial on the that, please 🙏 it sounds amazing

[@fredsmith6324]

Good work!

[@paulwarner5674]

Even the clicking sound, sounds better than my playing 😂

[@mrz80]

Do you ever put a drop of loctite on stuff like that that might vibrate loose in an action?

[@oliverheaviside2539]

Never! Very bad idea!

[@Valkiria666]

I need you to fix my Daddy's piano (Germany Shiffer) that sound stucks and sucks >_< like that clicking notes or worse

[@pennhoffert]

do you tune the pianos up

[@WorshipGuitarist4life17]

Have you ever dropped a piano action?? You know.. the thing of piano keys you set on the bench

[@apexpiano]

No I have not.

[@markcameron-smith]

They're nuts, not screws.

[@johnwayne2103]

Ok let me get this straight you put the keyboard on the piano bench and nothing to protect the bench?
What keeps that screw from back back out over time? There isn't some sort of lock screw?

[@matthewcantu3127]

I don’t think the country church cares about the bench that much, plus people sit on the bench anyways and it’s practical to just set it there to make a fox that actually effects the sound of the piano unlike the cosmetics of the bench, even if it was scratched, which I doubt, you could use paint markers to clean up any wood scratches

[@matthewcantu3127]

Also the felt right next to it and just the general motion of the hammer seems to be the cause of the loose screw, and there is no lock screw on this piano and many others, don’t ask me why cause idk🤷‍♂️

[@trulsdirio]

More than 10,000 moving parts? Thats more than a hundred per key. That seems like a hell of a lot?

[@philconey11]

Why isn't that screw just a nut?

[@apexpiano]

That’s a great question.

[@antonov2137pro]

Lol its more complicated than mechanical keyboard😂

[@huismus111]

well.. yeah

[@rubenproost2552]

loctite

[@oliverheaviside2539]

No!

[@richardfinn5354]

is there a single piano piece ever written that uses the top Do ?? Lol I've never came across one

[@originalstarwalker21]

Franz Liszt - "La Campanella"

[@fletchercalderbank8498]

@@originalstarwalker21 No it does not use that but the Rach 3 does

[@fletchercalderbank8498]

The Rach 3rd Concerto uses it, I know that I know other pieces that use the Top C but can’t think off the top of my head
Edit: It’s in the last movment, right before the VERY ending, one bar after rehearsal mark 76.
Depending on what edition you use it may be one of the last 2-3 pages of the entire piece

[@originalstarwalker21]

@@fletchercalderbank8498 ..uhh, unless what you're getting at is the absolute highest C, then yes

[@zackglickert4495]

passacaglia - Handel/Halvorsen
