[pianotech] bad technique

Wim,
ad advice, if the thing needs to be used again. Just what you need is a
eird brass nut that is all gowed up from banging on it with an
nappropriate tool! I guess that's why I'm the CotTP.<G>

If you do as I suggested, "tap gently", you won't have that problem .Of course, there are limits to "gently" and sometimes the thing is frozen, and you have to use brute force. In that case, even the tool you suggest will mar the brass. But most of the time gentle tapping will do the job.

Gene, 
ou can make a screw driver as Joe suggested. But the way I used to remove
hese nuts is by gently tapping on one side of the nut with a small screw
river blade. Depending on how tight it is, determines the size of the
ammer, and the force used to loosen it."
