[pianotech] Dampp_Chaser Fill Tube Location

[johnparham at piano88.com]

Keith,

In the context of an institutional piano in a practice room that you
service religiously because no one else in the music department will
take the time to fill it when blinky says I'm thirsty... this location
looks fine to me.  Thanks for the picture!

Since I live in Minnesota (3M is "Minnesota Mining & Manufacturing") maybe their products are promoted harder here... but they make all sorts of wall hooks etc. that have an adhesive strip that has a tab on one end that you just pull straight (like stretching the strip) to remove. It comes off painted walls without a trace. Google <3M removable hooks> for more information.
