 Barry...Australia is on a steep downward curve with new tuners being
trained.=0D

I would strongly suggest that you get involved with your (much loved and
trusted technician) firstly, telling him that you are seriously wanting t=
o
learn the trade, and for him to tell you sources of materials in Australi=
a.
Lou Parke is about the only material supply house we have here in Oz.=0D

You give no clues as to what State you live in. But all of the States are
facing a serious decline of new comers to the trade. =0D

Unlike the USA their is no *Randy Potter* courses as such, so it is a har=
d
road to row. But I would recommend that you get involved with the states
Guild you live in. And, seriously consider attending our Bi-annual
convention in South Australia 22-25 July 2004 at the Mercure Grosvenor
Adelaide. Here you will be welcomed with open arms from what ever state y=
ou
belong to, and, IF "YOU ARE SERIOUS" you will be pointed in the right
direction.=0D
=0D
The past history of our trade is littered with "music teachers* who want =
to
augment their teaching income with a quick buck by tuning their students
pianos! =0D

Hello Everyone and greeting from Australia=0D
I am new to the list and want to say 'hi'=0D

I am primarily a piano teacher who is a self taught tuner (with some
valuable instruction from my much loved and trusted technician) and I wan=
t
to learn more about maintenance/regulation etc.=0D
 =0D
I am hoping to pick up some great tips along the way as I read your email=
s.=0D
 =0D
I currently buy my supplies from International Piano Supply in Oregon who
seem to stock just about everything I need.  Are there many other places =
who
sell piano tuning and regulation supplies you would recommend?=0D
