I carry a piano tilter, the folding one I got from Tuners Supply. I have seen me use it twice in a day, to apply the C/A treatment for loose pins. It has 'saved' quite a few older uprights, for another few years. My clientele, are such that if I didn't save the old piano, there would be no piano. Especially true in these days of less disposable income. These pianos are 80 +/- 20 years old, and these dry Canadian Winters are taking their toll. John Ross Windsor, Nova Scotia.

That got me thinking---what other items might you carry for other exigencies? Or other every day customer service visits? One of the techs mentioned a Fastvac500 and that customers were impressed with a complimentary cleanup. We had a small vac when I worked at Berklee College of Music---"Piglet" went everywhere with us! If list contributors have had a discussion of what they carry beyond the ordinary and necessary minimums in the past please direct me to the year in the archives. I'd look it up myself, but I'm STILL shoveling out here in Boston.
