<HTML>Hello List.         Have read of several other technicians = discussing their work load for one day so I thought I'd share my work load f= or today.         Got a call from a Mennonite Youth= Camp located north of, Union, Michigan, a 30 minute drive north of me in Go= shen, Indiana, on Friday morning, needed a Kimball spinet tuned that afterno= on for a choir concert on Saturday morning at 10:30 AM.         Got there at 3:30 PM, tuned the spinet,= found one damper head hanging loose, reparied that, found one wire D#5 brok= e, didn't have my wire case, but tuned the piano, leaving the pianist with o= ne wire on D#5; wires had been knotted up in a ball.        "Oh, but we have 3 more pianos that nee= d tuning and some repair".  Scheduled that for today Wednesday 7/2/03.<= BR>        Started at 8:00 AM this morning:        Tuned a Yamaha 45: Studio, 13 c flat, p= itch raise and fine tune.        Tuned a Regent Upright, 7 c flat, fine = tune.  F#7 hammer broke off shank, glued                 it = back on shank.  Repaired D4 damper.              G7 = and A#7 wires broke, did not replace.  May do later on a return visit.<= BR>        Tuned a Baldwin, 45" Studio, circa 1993= , 17.5 c flat.  Pitch raise and fine tune.              Tun= ing pins were rock hard in block, stood up most the time, sometimes              eve= n used two hands on the hammer to move the pins. "Snap - pop"              B6 = hammer shank warped, hammer lightly rubbing on neighbor, will return              and= straighten,  didn't have butane torch with me.        Returned to Kimball that I tuned Friday= PM, pulled action, replaced D#5 wire.        Finished up at 4:00 PM,  no lunch,= had moved from one building to another with maybe 30 minutes lost time from unloading tools from Jimmy and then back in = and on to the next building.  8 hours work,  will be tuning every = 6 months and picked up an office worker with a piano to tune.  $375.00 = gross.  I do believe they got their money's worth.         Sitting here and sipping on a vodka and= tonic right now and cooling down while I type this out.        Temp in all buildings was around 79 deg= rees and RH was around 65%.  No air conditioning up there.  Nice p= eople though and a beautiful site on a lake.  All in a days work.
