Hello List and Wayne who was resourceful enough to use his Papps wedge =
as a pair of tweezers. Right on, I've frequently had to resort to that =
so we're on the same wavelength. In fact it's when the Papps wedge =
itself falls into the action I resort to using my spare one for that =
same purpose. You get these "shootist" pianos that shoot the Papps out =
at you...
Q. What to do with the broken Papps wedges?
A. Two things spring to mind:
1. Wait until you have two broken Papps wedges where there are two =
complementary halves which are OK and make up one useful one
2. Use them in the greenhouse as a mini dibber pricking out for =
seedlings.... (I have one in my greenhouse!)
Any other suggestions?
Regards from a sun, hail, rain and then sun again Sussex village in  the =
Downs

  Hello all,
  Got in the shop early this morning and read most of the posting from =

hammers and dampers. Having remember all of the posting regarding Papps =
mute I thought you may interested that I use my, as tweezers to =
retrieved my rubber mutes when I drop them into the action.=20
