---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Friends, It looked like I was going to finish early today (yea!! it's Friday!!), but alas, it was not to be. :-( The rotten-sounding little 1966 P A Starck spinet decided to break two treble strings. I didn't trust removing the action because all the little fiber nut grommets looked like they were waiting for an excuse to fall apart, too, so I knotted the one string and replaced the other with the action in the piano. Well, more to the point. The tuning pins were loose so I decided to move up to the next larger size (on the strings I was repairing/replacing). I was surprised to find that on all three of them the tuning pin becket holes were not drilled all the way through! I was in no mood to do much sleuthing, but I suspect that all the treble tuning pins were the same way. So, either chalk this one up to my poor powers of observation, or else this is a pretty rare way to go. Which is it?
