Was this weird?

Or just get a pitch source that you don't have to put in your mouth.Like a
Sanderson AccuFork, or an accurate guitar tuner.  ;-)

Put a piece of kinda heavy shrink tubing on the end, heat it until it
shrinks (duh) and save your teeth!

Today as I was starting to tune a piano, I struck my tuning fork on my knee.
I needed a hand free or something. I don't remember...but anyway, I put the
tuning fork, still vibrating, in my mouth and wow! As I grabbed it between
my molars, the sound of the fork was amplified perfectly! I could hear the
beats between he fork and the string better than I ever had before. On top
of that I now had a hand free. So I held the fork in my mouth, thumped on
the key with one hand, and tuned the string with the other, and prayed that
the customer wouldn't walk in and see what a dork I must have looked like
:-)
 
Well, I actually don't really care about looking like a dork. I have a
flashlight that I use when I need that straps to my head like a coal miner.
That looks look dorky too, but it work great.
 
Happy weekend.
