Hey, Ron, I just love to deal with perfect repairers like you and Jon, who obviously don't need any guidance and will send the most beautiful rubbings and get lovely sets in return for their pains. I wrote my message to a list of subscribers who are a cross-section of tuner/repairers of different levels of skill and neatness, exactly like my customer base. Fifteen years of stringmaking and thousands of rubbings have taught me that if Mr. Average Tuner follows the directions I publish, he is more likely to send me a readable rubbing and I to send him the set of strings he deserves. You've seen enough of other people's work to know just what I mean. JD
