---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Joe, Not to be contrary or anything, but what is a back check removing tool doing in a regulating tool kit?... What is the "grand damper tool"? Here are a few humble suggestions: a screw stringer-type let-off tool (which can double as a glide bolt tool), possibly a ratchet -type that has a much smaller head than the catalogue ones which are useless because they are too big, a butterfly spring reg. tool, a square head capstan wrench (possibly one that has another end on it to fit the older tilted hex-type caps. (Steinway, etc.), a grand damper wire bending tool (similar to the Hart tool, but without the handle, of course), and some kind of wire bending pliers, possibly like the Hale ones we used to be able to get, which were small and had a hole near the fulcrum to allow you to miss the bridle wire when bending back check wires. >Hi all, >I am in the process of designing a new more compact regulation tool >kit and would like some helpful ideas as what to include. >So far my list includes: > >non-directional eye screw turner ( the one that looks like a 4 leaf >clover inside) >grand small spade capture tool (very thin) (female) >grand large spade capture tool (female) >damper screw capture tool (male) >grand damper tool (very thin) >back check removing tool >improved Kimball rubber nut regulator (will be able to be adjusted for depth) >improved flange screw driver blade >capstan regulator (wood or brass holes) >upright flange spacer 11/16" blade >key spacer (offset) >4" extension bit with knurled shaft to use for light or fine use. > > >All of the above will have a hex shaft that will fit a standard >multi bit screwdriver handle. >Phillips and slotted blades have not been included in the list as >they are available at any hardware store as is a hammer shank drill >bit. > >All of the above tools to have a small case > >If you think of a tool bit thar might merit inclusion please let me know > > >Joe Goss ><mailto:imatunr@srvinet.com>imatunr@srvinet.com ><http://www.mothergoosetools.com>www.mothergoosetools.com -- Vince Mrykalo RPT MPT Senior Piano Technician Crane School of Music ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
