I would be very interested to see what Joe has to say about the proper
tuning technique for a square grand so that you don't end up crippled. I did
one square with my regular hammer, and after my recovery several days later,
I made myself a 2-1/2 foot long wrench with a pivot about 2/3 of the way
out. It actually works quite well and I can do all the tuning from my normal
sitting position. Once in a while I will need to stand to see which pin I am
placing the head on if I get a little confused. I find my self more and more
confused as time passes. This is the baking list, no?   ;-)
