Hi Harry:
The link to your video doesn't work. It appears to be Japanese, but isn't a hyperlink to the actual video.
You might get a piece of pinblock and test whether there's a difference whether turning the pin or pounding it in makes any difference or the speed of turning. If you've got an existing block, likely you'll use a larger pin. Maybe you might use a smaller jump in size, which would not stress the old block as much, but retain the same torque as before. You could try all of these things, and let us know what you find.
Good luck.

Hello,
There is a question which i wanted to ask long time ago.Sorry it might sound silly.
While restringing a piano, a new tuning pin would be hammered in rather than screwed in.
So what are the differences between those two procedures ?
Can i screw in the new pins rather slowly? i mean really really slow ,which is slow enough to avoid heat generated.
What i concern about when hammering the new pins in is that the incorrect angle someone took may damage the pin block.
what s more the impact force would make the pin block split.
Here is a youtube video .

would you mind copying and pasting that to watch that video,thanks.
I m just wondering which procedure is better,
What is the downside of one over the other,Much appreciate
