[Harp-L] Which Dremel Tool?

[JOSEPH LEONE]

>From 1/1/00 till about a year ago, Slidemeister dealt with tuning on a grand scale. Mainly because they were (mainly) a chromatic site, which require far far more maint than diatonics. 

Unfortunately every new person who visited the site seemed to require their own personal explaination of things that were already heavily covered in the extensive archives.

We, the 'explainers' would occasionally hint to the fact that the subject had already been covered numerous times and where they could find said info. But, verily, to no avail. Several of us, after 25 yrs., just got tired explaining. So sad.
