[pianotech] Of Chisels

[David Love]

The sidewall cut was actually done with a small saw.  The sharpened putty
knife/paint scraper was used to cut the notch.

David, I was in the same class, and if I recall correctly, which is becoming
more and more difficult these days, she used a sharpened and shaped putty
knife for creating the sidewall cut to connect the kerf to the bridge pin
hole. Does that ring a bell? Mazzaglia also has two types of these sidewall
chisels.
