Ok - I tried this today tuning a Baldwin 243. It was really close, so 
there was not alot of 'force and set' necessary.

The bottom line is:

It will take some getting use to. I use a Charles Faulk Hammer with a 
large ball-end to my specs, and I find the 'nudging' motion that I like 
to use is much easier pushing up with the meat around my thumb as 
opposed to the pressure of my fingers going down..which means I like to 
set from the sharp side.

Cy, I like it, and I'll get use to it.

Thanks,
