Clyde, Dave and list,
         I wasn't going to chime in on this thread but I thought that 
perhaps I had some extremely minor thing to contribute so here goes. I 
amlost always check for hinge pins too and I definitely always raise the 
lid to tune but mostly because I find tuning lever control is much better 
when I am closer to the handle following the string. See, I told you it was 
minor. :-)
