I wrote the misbegotten sentence "My first chisel handle was of this type, and
it is still in use (on a tuning gouge) after about thirty years" and Ed Minch
asked me "Tom, Is that for use on a piano?  Do you hit the tuning chisel with a
tuning hammer?"


Turning gouge I meant turning gouge. Damn typos. Pass that spitoon.
