-----Original Message----- From: owner-pianotech@ptg.org [mailto:owner-pianotech@ptg.org] On Behalf Of Claudia Cimenti Sent: Monday, July 08, 2002 3:11 PM To: pianotech@ptg.org Subject: tuning hammer tip Hi all, I had been looking at purchasing a nice tuning hammer for a while, and my beloved husband said on my birthday I should go ahead and get one. Excitedly, I got the Schaff 21C that comes with a #3 tip, and got the #2 tip while I was at it. The tips screw into the hammer head. But, blast, they come unscrewed when I try to tune the piano. What am I doing wrong??? Getting a one-piece head and tip would of course work, but I want to know how to get this to work. I fully assume user error and not tool error here. Thanks in advance for your comments. Desperately, /Claudia ----- Claudia Cimenti Northborough, Massachusetts claudia_cimenti@mail.com ----- Claudia, You need a tip wrench. I have an extra one. See you soon. Tom Driscoll
