  Hi Joe,
       A tool you already have is a handy rubber-nut tool. It's the =
shank cleaner, with the adjustable nut. Take of the nut, spread the =
tangs as you see fit (to fit)(have a fit)(uh...stop!), chuck it up in =
your variable-speed drill, and have at it. Common sense about holding =
the wire with your other hand and some pinchers of some sort, etc.etc.

  Try it sometime, it's a notch or two above removing bridle tapes with =
fire (hush-up, Conrad).

  Later,
  Guy

    Hi Vince.
    The tool that I have in mind is for use in replacing or removing the =
buttons with an electric drill.

fire wall <O( the tool is adjustable so that only a few turns need to be =
done by hand.
    On the other tools you will have to show me so that I can clearly =
see what you mean.=20

      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
