I = use my impact lever for pitch raises on pianos with tight tuning pins. = I've had a couple strings break while using the impact lever. Doesn't = seem to me to be much difference (except of course my shoulder doesn't = kill me when I use the impact lever). Terry Farrell ----- Original Message -----=20 From: David Ilvedson=20 I do tap the pitch down before coming up during a pitch raise and that = probably helps. I'd be interested hearing from others who use the = impact hammer and if they have noticed the same thing. Always looking = new tools...although I'd hate to have to carry 2 tuning hammers with me. David I.=20 -------------------------------------------------------------------------= ----- Original message One thing that will help curb string breakage, IMO, is the use of an = Impact Tuning Hammer. It's SOP for me. Of course, this applies to = Uprights only. I tried same on a Grand once.....Yikes! Not a happy = experience.
