While tuning a spinet last week a tuning pin broke at the becket hole leaving most of the pin exposed. I thought it would be a simple task to turn the pin out of the hole and hammer in a new one, but such was not the case. The tuning pins on this piano are super tight and I couldn't budge the broken pin with vise grips. So I sawed the becket deeper and tried a big screwdriver with no success. Can anyone suggest a tool or a method that will get this tuning pin out? Ted Simmons Merritt Island, FL
