What Fred says. Also, I use a tuning tip on a ratchet. It is easier to push the ratchet with my left hand, while holding up the coil with my right hand, with easy access to the coil. For a string hook, instead of the traditional hook, I made my own using a Steinway capstan screw regulator, (Pianotek part # SCR-2, Schaff part # 97). bent to look like a Norris pedal spring (Schaff #584), only with 90 degree angles at each end.

Dear List, 

I've always restrung grand starting at note 88, but am considering starting at the bottom of the plain wire and work up to give me better control at getting better coils. ?Are there opinions either way from y'all? 

Thanks 

Paul
