  Joe,

  The only thing I don't agree with your answer is the "and turn out each pin a full 3 turns!". I would never do that on an old upright. I always use a "dummy pin" to do the coils and turn the pins in the piano only 1 full turn.

    Hi  Michelle,
    First remove broken string and turn out each pin a full 3 turns!
    Then loosen a few bass strings that are in the neighborhood of the bridge pins of D4 so that you can pull the loosened bass strings out of the way as you work.  <snip>
