Marshall, are you sitting/standing in front of the grand piano when you =
tune the high treble section? If so, yes, your lever will tend to hit =
the rim. I sit on the side of the piano, typically with the right front =
piano leg between my knees - then your lever extends out over the capo =
bar - plus you can see where you are putting your mutes!

  You mentioned a hammer with the ball on the end.  When I was doing =
some tuning training recently, the instructor had one the Joe  Goss =
sells.  I think thy're pretty impressive levers.  The one you mention is =
a different brand, but similar in that it has a ball on the end.  It's =
amazing how many types of tuning levers are available out there. Ilove =
the feel of the Schaff 21, but I need to order a longer head for when I =
do grands, the head it came with, a 13g I believe, it hits the rim up =
toward the trebble section, and one has to get in a crink to tune with =
it. =20

  ps. I'm curious, how did you attach the wood ball from Hobby Lobby to =
your lever?
