Joe,<br>
I gather that your tool combines a string seating and string lifting
tool. Nifty. One less to carry around. I ended up
making the tool on my drill press. I've got to try it out.<br>
Did you find it necessary to temper the hook?<br>
I like your impact coil lifter. Will have to get me one of
those. Actually a lot of cool tools there. <br><br>

pretty sure thet was Nevin Essex. Nevin showed me his idea to produce
years ago, but we decided not to go ahead with production for two
reasons.<br>
I was after a tool that would not take much space and get caught on other
tools and wire. The dissemble feature allows for compact storage of my
tool.<br>
And I was doubtful of my use of his tool, in that it might cause ME to
break strings, or worse an agraff. <br>
As I tend to work with the idea that if a little is good, a lot is better
<O:(( Nevin's is a great tool, if used correctly.<br>

<dd>I recall a class on Sunday at the National Convention on voicing
through string leveling. The instructor, I wish I could recall his
name, had made a really nifty string lifting tool of brass rod and piano
wire. I'm in the process of making that. I generally recall
the dimensions, but would appreciate confirmation.<br><br>
