David, I make no first cut, I just pull the wire out of the can thread through agraffe and insert it in pin hole and spin three coils, insert pin in block and drive (no measuring). Next I pull wire through bridge, around hitch pin, through bridge across next pin head, measure distance and cut, no waste. One cut two pins. My old technique was to slip the end of the wire from the can into an empty pin hole but Ron Nossmans technique of inserting the wire into the next agraffe hole and winding two pins at once (eliminating changing tools) is my new technique. Thanks Ron! David Koelzer Vintage Pianos DFW
