Re: [Harp-L] question about seydel harps

[Rupert Oysler <orupert@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Actually the correct screwdriver for the cover plates screws is the PZ0, 
included in the Seydel basic toolkit, and available as an individual 
order for $5.95, plus ship ( item #900306). I find the best screwdriver 
for the reedplate screws is the PZ1.  Currently Seydel does not offer 
that  for sale, but both or either are pretty available and WIHA makes 
great ones. A small phillips head driver (#0, or even 1) and will work 
if you are careful (hold it all the way into the screw and make that 
pressure the priority while you loosen or tighten), and you can modify 
the tip by grinding/sanding/filing  perpendicular to the shaft, so as to 
make the tip more "snubnosed", and then it will work even better.

I cannot find the right screwdriver to remove the coverplates (for gapping and such) - I have tried several different sizes of phillips -head screwdrivers , as well as regular (straight)headed  ones, and nothing works. (I have one 1847, one "Solist pro" and one "Black favorite", and have the same problem with all three) - any suggestions?
