<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>When you tune a grand and there =
is only a
single braid, please take the extra 2 minutes and weave another piece =
in so
that the strings are captured. You only have to be in a school =
bandroom
tuning, have a string break and see it go shooting 20 feet across =
the
room to understand this. Gospel churches where the tail of the piano =
faces the
choir is also especially dangerous.</FONT></DIV>
