easier to find a handle direction which doesn't conflict with the lid,
just flip it over... ;-}"

Conrad,
You are correct about the double headed tuning hammer tip. However, they are no longer being manufactured. (Showed one to a machinist and he broke out in a cold sweat. Didn't have a clue how the darned thing was made!!!) Also, ALWAYS remove the lid and the damper upstop rail, of a square grand, before tuning. If you know how to do the lid, it's easy.<G> (no, I'm not going to tell y'all everything.<G> figger it out.<G>)
