It's very easy on the old conventional method of hammering in those tuning pins to go a little longer than needed between breaks and get tired or get a little distracted or whatever, and next thing you know, you have a two pound hammer that MISSES the tuning pin punch and has a brief but painful meeting with either the stretcher, the plate or the hand holding the punch requiring a touch up in the wood, touch up of the plate or a Band-Aid or some ice, or...
