Hi Roger,

It's a nice to have this list. I find it incredible that you can perform
items 1, 2, and 3 in 20 mins. There are approximately 800 operations in
1200 seconds--that's only 1.5 seconds an item. I know you are
bionic...but...some of us aren't.

Why this particular order? Have you tried "different" orders for the first
three items? I.E. coils first? 

I do find wild "swings" in pitch even on a single unison when I
level/tighten coils--so I generally do that first and then tune. I suppose
in an ideal world tuning could be redone after each of the first three steps.
