that buys many more years of life for a piano. Believe it or not, but
many clients don’t have $20k for a rebuild, yet they would still like to
be able to get their piano tuned. If you wish to thumb your nose at their needs
that’s fine by me. It’s bread and butter work for me and I get to
be their hero. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

makes it tighter. At least it has every time for the scores of times that I
have done it. But maybe I’m the one holding cherished myths. YMMV. <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

failing structurally and for which a more correct repair is not possible for
whatever reason. I wouldn't personally offer any guarantees nor do I. <br>
<br>
The problem with pulling the pin to determine if penetration has occurred is
that in so doing you loosen the pin even more.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
