Viennese Piano bits

 

 

The holes in the feet are formed by aluminium plugs in the mould used to make the waxes; in the case of Ref. 108 the hole passes right through the foot so the plug is longer than the foot. Measurements are approximate since the edges of the plugs are radiused.
Legs are fitted to the feet by first copying the size of the plugs, given above, and then fitting the leg to the foot. Ref.22  can be secured with a screw up through the bottom.
