Ron & List,
My question was and still is, does anyone know when and how did the
industries decide on the diameter of tuning pins?
Another question that's bugged me for years: Why is it that some
manufacturers 2/0 tuning pins are too big for a standard #2 tip, while some
are too small and others are just right? (Hmmmm! sounds like Goldilocks had
something to do with that!) :-)
Regards,
Joe Garrett
P.S.
An afterthought: Maybe Jack Wyatt might know about this stuff. Jack?
