Hi Folks,

Tuned an "m" today and the client wanted the a-440 note a little louder. Used some hammer hardener ,about eight drops from hypo oiler on shoulders( I was pressed for time to get to next tuning) and striking point. Hammer got VERY LOUD... I am going back tomorrow to bring it down. Any suggestions?
