Trimming grand shanks after hanging hammers 

05-31-2013 11:24

A simple jig, made of a 2x6 scrap with a slot a bit wider than a hammer sawed in it, and sandpaper glued to the bottom. Each hammer is lowered into the slot, secured with a wedge, then the jig and hammer are held securely by one hand while the other saws the excess shank.

Great stuff, Fred. You know what amazes me about you the most. You actually are a pianist of a very high nature, and yet, you risk your piano playing abilities to do shop work like what you just shared. Oh, and did I forget to mention, a writer of significant proportions. Dear PTG friend, you are a definitely a monster of the highest order for members, such as I. Eternally grateful for your presence. Sincerest regards, Keith Mc.
