Susan, Your statement: "Well, I did ... in the piano..." WHY??????? I've been accused of being a purist and for the live of me, I can think of no good reason to file bridge pins flat!!!! That practice came about because of poor drilling techniques, to make it "look" like it was done properly. Skinned knuckles is the only thing derived from filed bridge pins. And that hurts! Regards, Joe Garrett, RPT, (Oregon) I'm never lost, because everyone is telling me where to go. <G>
