The framework can be fixed 10 the back
OF the piano by putting fine screws through
the bamboo into the framework of the
piano. See that the screws are long enough
TO go into the plano. Turned knobs can be

hole to receive a screw could be screwed
on to the ends of the bamboo and into the
wooden knobs and then screws through
these plates into the piano back.
