rotisserie? What better than piano wire to tie up chicken legs and =
wings? And what about stitching a turkey together to keep in the =
stuffing at thanksgiving?

  I've used it in a pinch to tie up a muffler for a little old lady.  It =
didn't hold long...  must not be rust resistant.

    Hi Dave,
    I would think, #13 was too thin. Did you mic it?
    I have done the same as you, given away, a small length of wire, for =
the good will. and yes, sometimes a piano job, does come from it.  It =
has been used in cheese slicers, and in the removal of automobile =
windshields.

      I had a call today from a guy who wanted to buy come pianos =
wire....about 36".   I asked him what size, he didnt know.  Told him =
that his piano would care what size the replacement wire is, and he said =
it wasnt for a piano.  Right.

      I agreed to give him some wire just for goodwill. He showed up =
with a lawn mower throttle cable with the internal wire corroded  and =
broken.  Number 13 piano wire.  I gave him about 6 feet of wire and told =
him to tell any of his friends who have pianos about me.    Gave me a =
dollar anyway.=20

      You all have probably helped fix throttle cables yourselves, but I =
thought this was worth sharing.   =20

      What a job!
