    List,
    
    ??????????? ?This tool was made for cleaning the gunk- graphite grease 
    from the repetition lever ? grub?. (Nomenclature learned from a recent 
    list thread).
    
    I flattened the end of a mute handle, filed, bent and cajoled and 
    c.a.?d it into a wooden handle. With the spring out of the slot it will 
    push that junk out and burnish the surface in quick order.
    
    ??????????? That blurry thing is the official hand of Tom Driscoll

    Thanks, Tom.  Clever idea for a dirty little job.
