Chrome versus Nickel plated tuning pins

[Thos Carpenter]

Richard,
    being a tad rusty in german,  could you please guide me as to where I
need to go to view/order the pins.  I limped around for a few minutes.  They
seem to have a fairly large aray of produkten.  The hygrometers looked nice.
thanks,
Tom
