Key Bushing Cauls

You can't live without cauls for 0.146" pins as they are so standard.
On new Steinways the front pins are 0.131" so if you do any Steinway
work you'll need those.  I'd recommend getting a set of 0.146" and buy
the rest as needed.  All of mine are Spurlock cauls though I know there
are other good ones out there but Bill will get a set to you on very
short notice.  If you pick up an action to bush the keys and you don't
have the proper cauls, you can order them as you are removing the old
bushings and have them within a couple of days.

I would like to order some cauls soon, but I had a question.

 

I feel I don't need to order every single size/shape of cauls available,
and there are many.  So, what would be a good size to begin with, if I
were to order only one set?

 

 

Thanks!
Matthew
