Last week I completed notching and pinning the recapped bridges for the Baldwin F. Today I am showing the bridges being glued to the soundboard. I use liquid hide glue because of what I believe is superior sound transmission through the glue line, and also because it is easily reversed if the need arises to ever remove the bridge from the board. My soundboard press also doubles as a brigde press. You can see the bridges and board in the press and also the finished product. After finishing the bottom side of the soundboard, it is ready to be glued into the body of the piano.
