Sciortino Coil Maker

[Richard Moody]

I call the becket not only the piece or wire into the pin, but the bend
and the first half turn, as in "forming the becket" during restringing. 
With the Sciortino, you do not need to form the becket, the tool does it
for you.  Well you do have to stick it in the hole.  Maybe that's what
Ralph means.
