Karen, In a message dated 97-02-19 18:18:56 EST, you write: << My husband attached a nut driver the appropriate size to the Black and Decker power screw driver and voila! No more sore wrists, and a project that looked like was going to take forever, was reduced to an hour or so. >> On the spinets where the abstract is pinned to the wippen you have to run off the nut. However, on most Baldwins the abstract wire can be slipped out of the wippen, the grommet slipped off of the bottom end and a new one slid on. This can all be accomplished very quickly with very little regulation required, practically no wear on the fragile not and without even removing the action from the piano. Hope this helps the next time you run into one. Allan Allan L. Gilreath, RPT Gilreath Piano & Organ Co. Berry College Gilreath@aol.com Calhoun, GA USA
