<html> <body> <pre>>Nice idea for the "Terminator." It would be even nicer if there was a >T-handle or a 90 degree bend in the tool to make it easier to control the >bend (and easier on the wrist). How did you machine it? File(s)? Dremel >grinder? It's easy to over-do it when bending the wire. Light pressure is all it takes. A bench grinder did the bulk and a Dremel did the detail; a file dressed it. >BTW, the lifting tool you describe is very similar to the "Strate Mate" >now offered by Pianotek, for those with more bucks available than spare time >and inclination to fool around making your own tools. The "Strate Mate" has a very small wheel and I fear would klnk the wire. It took no time to grab a scrap strip of pin block trimming, drill a hole and bang in a used spinet caster.
