Impact Lever

Dear Dave,

I've been using the Mahaffey for about 12 years now.  I have regained full
range of motion in my tuning shoulder since I switched to it.  I was unable
to lift my hand higher than my shoulder for a couple of months before I
started using it.  I think the best thing would be to learn to tune half the
piano with the impact lever in my right hand and the other half with my
left.  I still have some trouble with numbness and I think my one handed
tuning is the reason.

Our bodies are our most valuable tools.

Laura Olsen

        Joe, does this mean that you're going to have a booth at Reno?  Save
one of those hammer leveling sanding block thingees for me, will you?

        I was thinking of trying an impact tuning lever. I have chronic pain
in my neck, shoulder, elbow, numbness in my fingers, etc., etc. I've heard
that these things can be helpful.

        I see two in my catalogs. One is from Schaff with the adjustable
weight and the other is a Mehaffey from Pianotek. Does anyone have any
opinons on which is the best, or neither of the above? Any input is
appreciated.
