I used to use a fondue fork. Michael Spreeman www.RavenscroftPianos.com He suggested making a tuning tool using a cheapie flatblade screwdriver using a grinder to put a V in the center of the blade then putting the tip of that balde, below the V in a vise & bending it to a 90 degree angle.(hence the "cheap" screwdriver) The V will catch on the tuning springs allowing you to pull or push as needed for tuning. Subtle small movements are the order of the day! DAMHIK _________________________________________________________________ The New Busy is not the too busy.
