  With the limitation of wood gone, WNG is able to   design piano parts  that are more accurate and efficient. The material is also stable as it is resistant to changes in the environment, so temperature and humidity changes become less of an issue for these piano parts as well. WNG is able to make different sized parts which can be tailored to each pianist’s preferences. This also helps parts to be fitted in a wide variety of different branded pianos as each of their designs are different. The piano parts also come with different attachments that allow piano rebuilders the option to adjust or improve the piano’s action.
