Hi Charles
Should you decide seriously to learn the piano trade, the first thing would be to learn about the piano. I recommend the Arthur Reblitz book on Piano Technology. Work on cheap pianos first. Get a good set of tools- no gooseneck tuning hammer. A good hammer from Schaff Piano Supply should work fine. Get it with a 1" head at 10 degrees and a  number 3 tip. Use a medium thick wool temperament strip to mute the middle area and 6 of the 1/2"X 1/2" rubber mutes w/o handles, and a split mute with flat steel handle for the treble and an English steel A440 tuning fork. 

I wish you the best
