Tuning levers

[Farrell]

Interesting. I had never thought about it before. I seem to have given up throwing wrenches. I remember throwing quite a few back when I used to do a lot of my own work on automobiles. But now with pianos, I can't think of a single time I have thrown a wrench. Now I know for a fact that I have thought about it...............

So either I have matured a tiny bit, or pianos are way better than cars. I think it is the piano thing!
