The entire process can be done in 2-4 hours. As these models are patterned after actual pianos, and made using actual piano action parts, they are authentic, accurate representations of an upright piano, and a grand piano and can be used to practice regulating of the piano actions. As a learning tool, the assembly into working models will impart a thorough understanding of the action itself and the processes and techniques necessary to service any piano. These skills are invaluable to any piano technician as well as a necessary requirement for membership in the Piano Technicians Guild.
These kits, when completed, also make great display pieces for Piano Technicians, Piano Shops or Stores, Piano Teachers, or anyone else interested in music and pianos, or curious about how these things work. Please see my other auctions for a listing for the individual versions of the Upright and Grand kits. Together, the 2 model kits will help you gain a thorough knowledge and practical skills to regulate and repair virtually any piano.
