This morning I removed a bunch of things I figured I wouldn't need for a while...before the day was out I needed three of the things I removed 🙃 😅

Thanks Larry! I'll be seeing Dan on Monday. I'll have to tell him that I read his article!

Peter, some of us try to use mass transit and it can really be a challenge to decide what to carry or leave behind.
Gregory, looking forward to seeing more of your designs. There's also a Piano 3D print accessories and parts group on Facebook that sometimes has some interesting things.

I have long fantasized about most or all of the tools in my tool bag being made of "plastic" (or CF), thus drastically reducing the weight of what I carry around all the time.
Of course, the logical response would be: "Just carry what you NEED and leave the rest in the vehicle till it's absolutely necessary..." Of course I'm well aware of that, but "someone" just keeps putting more stuff in there...

John, thanks for the follow! Really an honor -- turns out I have printed a handful of your models in the past year or so, you've got some very useful stuff!
I'll have some extra things to be adding as I get my library in order, thank you for sharing!

Thanks Gregory. I'm now following you on Thingiverse.
I have also designed and printed a bunch of piano tools, some of which are on Thingiverse along with some other stuff. My latest project is these lifter rod locks for Baldwin Acrosonic pianos. I'll be trying the prototype on a piano later this week.
