I have a search for "piano tuning" bookmarked. That finds a lot of items. If you tell it to include the description in the search, you'll come up with everything from cd's to pianos for sale. Most folks who are selling used piano tuning tools are these estate sale raiders who have no idea what they've got, and will list with "piano tuning" in the title (sometimes whether it's actually a piano tool or not). Sometimes they know what the item is and you can do a search for that specific tool, but most of the time you'll just have to scroll through the listings to see what's out there. Sometimes its technicians either retiring or cleaning out the shop and they know how to list items. You'll also get a few hits with "piano tools" but don't include the description in the search. That is an endless list, including all kinds of computer piano teaching "tools". "Piano repair" is also a good one. I used to keep up with what was on there by watching the newly listed items every day. But the number of items that come up with a "piano tuning" search (including the description in the search) has more than tripled in the 3 or 4 years I've been watching it, and most of it has nothing to do with piano tuning. Just try different searches and see what come up. I don't think there's a piano tilter on there right now, but I'm sure I've seen them on there in the past, and you just never know what somebody's going to put on there. Has Schaff stopped offering them? They are in my last price list (2003). Jeff On Jun 9, 2006, at 10:54 AM, Avery Todd wrote: > Jeff, > > Any idea what search term(s) to use to find that? Pianos?
