Joe, here is what the capsule pliers which are used to expand the 
capsule to remove and re-insert the hammer shanks look like.  These are 
not in stock as yet, but are on order. 



I am working on developing a whole section in my catalog/product palette 
to tools and supplies for the authentic restoration of early and 
Victorian pianos, from tuning pins, string wire, cloth and felt, to 
action parts (where available) etc.  In my view, this has been neglected 
by supply houses in the past.  I sense that awareness is rising as to 
the importance of approaching these instruments in an appropriate manner 
as regards to the parts, tools and techniques used for working on them.

If I know where there is a need, I will go out and try to source solutions.
