Two holes because you will be only using one or two holes = depending on whether you are replacing a single string or two strings = using one length of wire. The holes keep the wires from twisting around = each other as they are installed. 2. I stated 9 and 3 o'clock positions only for reference meaning = they should be opposite each other. I could have said 12 & 6, or 10 & = 4, or...... 3. The end is soldered closed in order that the two holes can be = drilled in the end of the tubing thus maintaining the correct = orientation of the two wires. Epoxy could be used, you could even smash = the end of the tube flat then drill two holes. The idea of two tubes is = good also, the function of any tool of this type is to separate the two = strings as they are being fished down to the hitch pin, and keep them = separated as the tool is withdrawn. =20 No mistake, the Pianotek version is a fine piece of work, but the = brass tubes are somewhat fragile, and the cost is high for a tool that = is used only occasionally. =20 Mike Kurta ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
