Hi All, This morning a tuned a piano which I had tuned several years ago. Not = much to report on the piano...but my beautiful Renner voicing tool which = seem to have walked out of my tool case some time ago, was staring right = at me from the inside of the piano.=20 I'm a self-confessed member of the involuntarily tool = donation/contribution group, a special selected group of mid-40ish = tuners who have a nasty habit of leaving their best tools at customer's = homes. Tom Servinsky, RPT Back in the early 70s I ordered an action rail from Steinway. When it = arrived the package had been so badly mangled the rail was bent beyond = repair and we had to order another. From the original mangled rail I = managed to salvage enough short pieces to make handles for my grand = action regulating tools. Not long thereafter I managed to loose one of = them. Now, fast forward to the late 1980s. I was doing a class for = Baldwin somewhere in the Northwest and a technician from Portland = approached me and asked if the regulating screwdriver he was showing me = might be mine. He had found it in a piano he had been servicing and = remembered having seen it during a class I had once done years earlier. = It had come full circle. It's a small world--you have to be good all the time. Del ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
