Hello Everyone!
 
I just read Phil's recommendation concerning using clothes pins (or pegs) for keeping strings tight on
tuning pins when removing strings from an instrument. A brilliant idea, and one I shall surely use in
the future!
 
I have another use for clothes pins: I use them when making fortepiano hammers to hold the leather
on hammer heads tight until the glue dries. Works like a charm!
 
                        Best!
