>Drive the pin in, or turn it? Use the same pin? Drive it in to the same depth it was when you removed the string. I use same pin. Put string in as before, & tighten by turning. Hopefully, you just backed it out 1/2- 1 full turn and popped the becket out when removing: just reverse the process. Let us know what you try & how it worked. BTW - be sure you put the pin in with the round end in (becket hole out). Why do I say that? One piano had about 12 of the suckers to do this way, I was hungry, was going fast, and ... the rest is history. <g> Wally Wilson
