<p class=MsoPlainText><font size=3 face=Verdana><span style='font-size:12.0pt'>Last
week I bought a 7mm brass bore brush to clean out the tuning pin holes of a
Steinway grand that had 3 (0) pins that are needing replacing because of not
being tight enough. No, it will not be getting a new pin block. Has anyone
used the 7mm ( around 0.285) bore brush before and does it do a good job of
cleaning the original holes to help avoid pin jumping with the new pins?<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
