But seriously, Joe, putting in a larger pin is not all that bad. If there is a situation where a pin has to replaced because the hole has gotten too big, then what is wrong with it? In fact, I have read that some techs even go up one size pin just when replacing a string. While tuning a piano with different sized pins might not be ideal, it is better than having loose pins. The difference in torque, and having to switch heads, is our problem. All the customer wants, is an in tune piano.
