Hi Terry,
I use a 1/8" x 3/4" x 48" iron strap that has felt to protect the new =
key tops that I am replacing. This is clamped to the end keys and used =
as a guide. The strap locates where the notch will end up all in a =
perfect row. Something always seems to happen with my router O:((=20
The file is just a little narrower or smaller than the width of the =
sharp gap and smooth on the edges so that it can not over cut.

  Do you have a picture of the device Joe? I looked on your web site but =
did not see it. BTW, what is a notching file?

    Hi all,
    The Varituner has an update to its base that gives it a more slimmed =
down foot that allows it to rest on almost any narrow ledge. Courtesy of =
Mother Goose designs.

      Hello Dale. I use the Verituner and previously used an SAT 3. Yes =
the Verituner is larger than the SAT 3 - about the same footprint as the =
SAT 2 if my memory serves me correctly - a bit heavier though. While =
smaller is always an advantage, I do not find the size of the VT to ever =
be a problem. Like the Steinway tech told me about the dinging noise in =
my new Steinway - "you just get used to it".

      I have never had any trouble easily seeing the display on the VT. =
You can get a reflection sometimes if you are sitting opposite a bright =
window, but you just angle the VT a little and the problem goes away. I =
find it to be no trouble.

      IMHO, if you like listening to your octaves and manually setting =
your stretch in the various areas of the scale each time you tune a =
piano - the little powerhouse SAT 3 is hard to beat - it is so simple =
and a pure pleasure to use. If you like to just shift into autopilot =
(but of course, still have complete control over stretch settings, etc.) =
and produce fantabulous tuning time after time on any piano, go with the =
VT. And of course the VT has all sort of other bells and whistles.

      I was in love with my SAT 3, but I'm also in love with my VT and I =
feel like we are still on the honeymoon after almost two years now!

                 List

         Having just sold my acutuner 2 for , yes $599.00, I'm looking =
at finding out if it's worth buying a used Sat-3 or or just getting a =
new one. I willl test drive the verituner but I'm not keen on the size & =
I've heard the display is difficult to read..
