[pianotech] piano keys

[Laura Olsen]

Scaff sells a couple of different kinds.   A triangle and another that looks more like a ..."key".  You can get one from Yamaha for the P22s and Grands.  I keep a collection with me at all times.  Kawai, Yamaha, Steinway.  
It's a bad beginning to a day when You can't get inside the piano to service it.

Fortunately we found a teacher who had it.  Would I simply go through Yamaha or woudl Schaff or Pianotek have the right key?  Is this key a universal one for Yamaha, or is it strictly for the P22?  How many keys should I have on hand and what kinds just in case I get into a jam again? Thanks
