I can't sleep at night. I've lost my zest for living! <BR>> :-{ <BR>> <BR>> My therapist told me that the only way I could resolve this inner conflict <BR>> would be to buy a digital camera. So I have ordered one. I'm feeling <BR>> better already! :-) <BR>> <BR>> I hope to be able to post pictures of my hammer tapering rig (for hammers <BR>> that are mounted on shanks) by next weekend for those of you who have <BR>> requested that I do so. <BR>> <BR>> Will Truitt <BR>> <BR>> <BR>> <BR>> -----Original Message----- <BR>> From: pianotech-bounces@ptg.org [mailto:pianotech-bounces@ptg.org] On Behalf <BR>> Of Barba

You probably don't even need to download any software, your windows <BR>> <BR>> program (if that's what you use) will most likely save the pictures when you <BR>> <BR>> plug in the USB cable that comes with the camera. Please use the tripod, <BR>> too--that will minimize any camera shake (=out of focus) and if you use the <BR>> camera's timer, there will be absolutely no shake and you can set up the <BR>> photo with your hands free to model in the picture ((holding the jig as it <BR>> glides through, etc.) When you have a good picture downloaded to the <BR>> computer, click on it, and somewhere you'll see an option to email it. If <BR>> you're sending a picture to me, please send the original
, full size file and <BR>> <BR>> I'll edit it. If you're sending it to pianotech, you may choose the option <BR>> of a smaller file. <BR>> <BR>> Call me, I'd be happy to help. <BR>> <BR>> Barbara Richmond, RPT <BR>> Associate Journal Editor <BR>> <BR>> <BR>> <BR>> ----- Original Message ----- <BR>> From: "Will Truitt" <SURFDOG@METROCAST.NET><BR>> To: "'Pianotech List'" <PIANOTECH@PTG.ORG><BR>> Sent: Tuesday, August 26, 2008 7:05 PM <BR>> Subject: RE: hammer thickness trimming jig, found mine! <BR>> <BR>> <BR>> > Please forgive me for not offering you a photograph, I am one of those <BR>> > Luddites who still does not own a digital camera. <BR>> > <BR>> > <BR>> <BR>> <BR>> <BR>> </BLOCKQUOTE></body></html>
