I need to grind the treble counter-bearings off of the plate of a piano in a customer’s home. I am hoping someone here has a good suggestion for which tool works best to give a clean removal that stays relatively flat. I would like to avoid screwing up the plate finish nearby, and leave a flat surface that I can put a half-round on.</span></p><p class="yiv303760319MsoNormal"><span

I can use a Dremel, but am worried it will be very hard to get it smooth and level.</span></p><p class="yiv303760319MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"serif";color:#1F497D;"> </span></p><p class="yiv303760319MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"serif";color:#1F497D;">Keeping in mind the need to do it in the home, any suggestions? Dremel with a specific tip, maybe? </span></p><p class="yiv303760319MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"serif";color:#1F497D;"> </span></p><p class="yiv303760319MsoNormal"><span
