Tuning lever heads

[Newton Hunt]

Well, if it ain't broke, don't fix it.  If it works for you...  The idea
of around ten o'clock is that the stress on the pin is opposite (but
unequal) from that put on the pin by the string.  Tuning S&S uprights at
10:00 is a royal pain in the back.  I am right handed.

Have a good week.
