Remove 10 strings in less than a minute ...
Cut the end off a string winder , drill a hole in the center , run a wood screw thru it , or nut and bolt,tape the screw head , so not to scratch the tuner key ,
Stick it in your drill ,
Or I guess you could always buy the premade $30 version
With battery screw gun attached |

| I have an attachment for my cordless screwdriver much like the one made. Bought at a music store long ago. Works great. |

This works great, the D'Addario Peg Winder is $5.99, Harbor Freight screwdriver $8 with the standard issue 20% off coupon, so $14 total. The speed and torque are perfect for this application.

Necessity is the mother of invention it's said. 40 yrs. ago there were none of these drill chuck attachments that I knew of, so Philip used his noggin to make his job easier and faster so it would seem.
Yeah, I got the D'Addario Planet Waves and Dr. Duck's attachments too now. |
