This ain't half as good as a tuner I heard about recently. He did 13 pianos in one morning. Er, at least that's what he billed for. I must say I admire your stamina. It would drain me too much, though, if I did that much every day. The main problem is that you only got paid once for the work you did today. I've found a better way--work once and get paid for years. Regards, John Formsma ***************** SidewaysWell wrote: List, Wow! A new record for me: 32 pianos in one week. All were tuned twice over completely except the 3 that were pitch raises (over 50 cents each). 3 vertical actions were removed & replaced, including 1 Acro$onic, the kind with the giant fallboard and sticker rail that can come apart and create a hopeless situation. 4 were 70 miles away. All were tuned in EBVT except 1, 1/7 Comma Meantone (by request), one Marpurg QET (by request) 1, QET of my own design, 1 Thomas Young (by request) and 1 Vallotti (by suggestion). I also did various repairs, cleaning, touch up regulation and 1 voicing job. Some were grands (Steinway, Kawai & Yamaha included), some verticals, some nice, studios, others consoles and spinets (including Wurlitzer & Betsy Ross), most in private homes, 6 in schools, 3 in a church, 1 on stage. All were left with my personal touch which has become well known and is in high demand. The only thing I can do to satisfy this demand is to work extended hours.
