The first thing to do is find a local technician of your choice, preferably one that does restorative work. Hate trying to make silk purse out of sows ear though.Thanks again for allowing others to gain from your experience, much appreciated.Mike. Kind of like the idea of trying to rebuild a piano. I am a carpenter with 30yrs experience in renovating houses, boat rebuilding, and have rebuilt cars also so don't really see repair as a problem. Putting appearance aside though if the it doesn't Play well then its just nice looking furniture taking up valuable space for a good piano.Dan would you recommend ditching it or look further and if not separating then bolt as you stated above. Not overly ornate but very tasteful appearance in my humble opinion.

Looks like it fits the description you gave.This piano really caught my eye.

This was the traditional build in the upper framework, but instead of the lag bolts that run through the pin block and out the back plank, they had a series of wedges interlocking the back plank and pin block together across the top of both planks.Unfortunately over time the tremendous weight of the instrument at concert pitch gradually began to pull the upper framework apart. They did, however, like all other manufacturers experience weakness in some of their design features.Mason & Risch had a series of instruments built with a design called the interlocking pin block. Mason & Risch was one of the top five Canadian companies. Some pianos do not have serial numbers when they are manufactured as 'House Brands' for large retailers. Pianos also have numbers other than serial numbers, such is the case with part or patent numbers. The age of your piano is determined by the Serial Number. I was wondering if it was older then Handelsmyfav's piano. When my mom passes many many years from now there will be some fighting over the piano.
