Repairing an Oops on an Upright Piano Foot

Category: Shop Work, Case Repairs
Date: 2020-06-13


The starting point


After sanding a flat surface, a hardwood block is glued to it. I used cherry, because it was close at hand.


The hardwood block is trimmed with a flush-cutting hand saw.


Trimmed and sanded


New mahogany veneer is applied to the outside and end of the foot.


Stain to match is applied.
