Ramsey'; 'Pianotech' Subject: RE: Restringing It seems to me, As replys abound, We get more confused With every round. Coils or loops, Which do we mean? One goes on the pin, The other goes on .um . the other pin. BTW IMHO the Sciortino is a great (expensive) tool when it works, which for me is about half the time. Never have figured out why it sometimes does not. It's like splicing a string: Sometimes I can do it in the dark with one finger in my nose, other times I stare stupidly at the ends and can't remember what goes which where or why. Alan R.

Ramsey Sent: Monday, June 23, 2003 8:51 PM To: Pianotech Subject: Re: Restringing No, Harry, I've never broken a string with one of those, (they're perfect when you're not removing the tuning pin on bass strings, though, aren't they?) We were referring to the coil makers for single strings on hitch pins.
