TP coils

[Jon Page]

I recently had a grand in which had this wire protrusion through most
of the piano. Very sloppy looking. I was able to clean it up with a
Dremel Tool and grinding bit and only nabbed a few coils, oops - pow !

The job looked decent following this, along with compressing the coils
and tuning, tuning, tuning.
