>I use Michael Calahan's (801-599-2242), and I love it.  Titanium shaft (no 
>extension), ball-end wood handle, bulge in the handle below the ball allows 
>for dozens of different grips.  He makes them in handles of different sizes 
>for different hands (and different exotic woods, with a special finish). 
>Precision-made with a CNC machine.  Looks amazingly identical to Steinway's 
>150th anniversary hammer (;-).

>That reminds me, I ran across this interesting article by Keith Bowman about 
>levers and their maintenance:
>http://rennerusa.com/Technicians/technicians.html

>Keith suggests sizing the grip like a tennis racket: where the fingers 
>almost touch.  And he recommends using WD-40 to clean your tip right after 
>turning rusty pins (I'm overdue!).
