Hi all,

I have discovered while setting up and actually trying to work in my new =
(moved) shop, that I'm having a hard time finding things.  Golly, I =
remember where everything was in my shop at Illinois Wesleyan 9 years =
ago!  :-)   I just realized that a few things must have gotten lost in =
the moves from Texas and back (it's a little late to file a claim).  =20

Anyway, strapped to my big old honking pipe clamps, was a jig--a long =
thin piece of plexiglass with rectanglar holders on each end that =
attached to hammer shanks on each end of a grand action.  When it was =
attached, one cold take the special pencils (I still have them!) and =
mark the location of the strings--making hammer spacing on the bench =
easier--especially when the piano is miles away.  I got it at a =
convention probably around '84-'85 (?) and I "think" it was David Betts =
who sold them.  Does anybody remember these, who made them, and what =
they were called?----(before I drop David a line saying, "Hey, was it =
you who sold those gizmos and are you still making and selling them?")  =
:-)=20
