Selecting
Tube Size
The sizes quoted are actual Internal Diameters. To select the right size
either measure the Internal Diameter of the existing tubing in the middle
of a run and select the nearest size from the above, OR, measure the Outside
Diameter of the fixed metal tubes and select the next size down from
the above in order to get a secure fit. If you are still unsure, send
me a sample of the existing tubing and I will recommend the best size.
The very small "Tracker Bar" tubing is 1/8" on the majority of player
pianos, but some did use larger sizes, always check as above.
Rubber Cloth
NOTE:- Supplies of thin cloths, C1 & C2, remain
problematic.
Source may change between USA, Australia and Europe

Leather
Note:- Due to deteriorating quality of available leathers, L1 pouch leather
is now being imported from the USA. This has been specially treated and
sealed and should give good airtight pouches.
UK sourced pouch leather is still available (now L11), but may have pin-holes.
This is suitable for laying under pneumatics as on Aeolian instruments,
or for other similar gasket situations. Not recommended for pouches.
Flap valve leather is now calf leather, thus slightly more expensive,
but better quality.
When ordering leather by the sq. ft. please indicate any mimumum dimensions. This is cut from complete skins, so square pieces are not always practical - often it is easier to supply an oblong strip (e.g. 6" x 24") instead of a 12"x12" square.

I stock a selection
of medium density felt which is useful for most piano applications. It
is approx. 72" (1.8m.) long and is usually required in narrow strips as
priced below (other sizes available on request, priced pro-rata). Depending
on current stock I can also supply pieces priced "per sq. ft.".
I can obtain special hard felts and thick baises from piano trade suppliers
on request (but they work out quite a bit more expensive than this felt).
