Class 9/27
John shows the keyboard team how to apply the sharp blocks. (Paul is holding a light below the keyboard so that John can make sure the sharp block is properly centered.)
The case team (here converted to the wrest plank team!) prepares to glue the nuts in place.
Elizabeth and Karen adjust the 4' nut.
John checks the alignment of the sharp blocks. We had followed the instructions to score a line along the back of the sharp before gluing it on, but we ended up with uneven front alignment. Since the glue hadn't set yet, John just popped off a few of the keys and I glued them back in place using the front ruler as a guide instead.
Today we also looked at real cow-hide glue (like my namesake would have used in the 1580's!) and discussed what we should engrave on the rose before we gild it.
