When?I was at UA, I used summer breaks to concentrate on one area that needed extra work. One summer I took all the practice room uprights in my shop for a complete makeover, (not replacing parts, but complete regulation, etc.) One summer I did all the practice room grands, then the class room grands. etc. 

One advantage of doing this is getting into a zone of sorts. Even though?I knew how to regulate, by doing a whole bunch of uprights in a row, for instance, I discovered short cuts, being able to detect minor flaws, etc. 

I don't know if this is the advice?your're looking for, but it worked for me.

Does anyone have, or wish to share, thoughts on summer servicing procedures?
Priortizing. Servicing levels, Regulating, Tuning,?Cleaning, Cabinet repairs etc.?
Maybe in the?archives but one of the plebes?inquired to see my tick list for summer instrument servicing procedures for the inventory. Perhaps if there's nothing available, I can consolidate into one practical?doc for all.
Much appreciated,
Gerry
