	Jim,
	   At the plant, we have shelves on the wall behind the pianos
in the stringing room. The shelves have sections (about 10 inches tall)
of Sono-tube concrete casting forms. Like used for pillars, posts, and
cat houses. About 15" dia. In the section of tube, is a wooden wheel
with a few upright dowels. A notch in the side of the tube allows the
wire to spool out, while the wheel rotates in the tube. Snap-on pipe
insulation protects the rim of the piano as the wire is dragged off the
shelf to be used. No, I didn't invent it, but I think it's slick!

	Do any of you have a good container or method to store and
easily use piano wire in the large rolls? I m also hoping that I can
figure out a way to adapt it with all my new Pure Sound stainless wire.
The rolls are about 17 inches diameter.

	It seems I read something about this years ago but I couldn t
find anything on the archives. I recall something that it had an arm
with a sort of brake thingee too. The container is the part I can t
visualize. Having 15 huge boxes around would work, but there s got to be
a better way. (I ve always just set the roll on a blanket on the plate.)
