Joe and all, I, too, do not like to move a piano after it has been tuned. I have a standard L-shaped Allen wrench that I can easily use by feel even if the piano is only 1 1/2" from the wall. For that reason I would not change a thing, but that's just a personal choice. I see this as a big deal only for those technicians who rarely get to tune one of these babies and don't keep the wrench on hand. *Then* it can be troublesome, but several have given good tips here on how to get out of that tight spot.
