Carpal Tunnel problems

[Jack Houweling]

Hello

Ten years ago I was tuning to many school pianos and could not carry on .The
doctors put my arm in a cast . I had to keep on working so I learned to tune
with my other hand. Now I can tune with both hands and whenever I feel any
pain I just switch over.

 Good Luck,
Jack
