[pianotech] Tight Tuning Pins

[Matthew Todd]

I do not own a Fujan yet, but I have heard of it.  Not that I don't believe you, but are there any testimonials on the hammer, so I can feel better about spending the price ($325)?

Plus there are options to choose from, which I may need some guidance.

Thanks!

Do you own a Fujan tuning lever yet? After 30 years of tuning abuse, bad ergonomics, bursitis in my shoulder, tennis elbow, and a new fracture in my wrist (black ice on the sidewalk!!), I won't leave home without it! 100+ lbs torque? - no problem! A Reyburn Cybertuner could be very helpful as well.

What is a good technique, or a better hammer to use on pins with 100+ lbs of torque???
