The end of the wire always pops out of the hole in the tuning pin when I try = to put the first turn on. I have tried using the coil lifter to hold the wire = in place, but that didn't work. The diameter of the first = turn always becomes too large, and I can't make a neat first turn, tight against the tuning = pin. The result is that the end comes out of the hole in the pin. The = wire is so stiff and springy. The wire needs to be held firrnly and tangential to = the pin, but I am not sure how I can do this. Could anyone suggest how I could = overcome this problem? Thank you very much. </FONT></DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV> <DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Robert = Finley</FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
