I do happen to have a good friend who is an H back Tech, so he'll be able to recover the free on for me at Little To no charge.

I have to go through and check on this old farm equipment most of it has been sitting outside for a while but I am fascinated by old stuff like that. I reckon taking pictures of this stuff and attaching them might help



Thank you all for responding to me.I feel like I'm really in over my head and no matter how much I read or how many videos I watch I still feel like I know absolutely nothing.All I do know is I'm really good at disassembling things and really good about doing it in an organized manner. So, I guess I have that going for me.

I did assemble the piano and I was very disappointed to find out most things were either bronze plated or copper plated.The only thing that was really about you, was the cast iron heart in a few of the Brass knobs, wheels, foot pedals.Took about 6 hours to disassemble it properly and I feel like such a clown.

Most often it will be a faulty defrost timer that caused the fridge to be tossed, dryer check for a broken drum belt, cheap fix, the new washing machines are junk especially the front loaders types - electrolysis eats the spider.

The newer refrigerator's now use electronic timers, the capacitors as they age will fault. Usually replacing the capacitors with the same values and the orientation of how they were first soldered onto the board. I buy my electrical supplied form Digikey.

A wood burning iron with a soldering tip is hot enough for this type of work.

Depending on the age of the piano and manufacture, some harps have value as they've been known to crack. Ivory was used on the keys up until

Many American piano manufacturers discontinued using ivory in the early 1970s, however, some international manufacturers in parts of Europe and Asia continued using ivory throughout the 1980s, until ivory trade was finally banned
