Kinya, could micromarks sensi press, or pressit base that you use for tapping, for reed removal using their punch accesories?

Hi William Yes it can, but

Hi William

Yes it can, but not out of the box. It would require some work to pull off.

I recommend contacting Bill Romel's widow, Betty at <msbeta_22@hotmail.com>

She will hook you up with the de-reviting tool most commonly used by the Harp Tech community.

Sensi-Press

Hello William

I wanted to revisit your idea of using the Micro-Mark Sensi-Press and a De-Riveting tool. If you already have the "Press-It" accessory for your Sensi-Press, then simply purchasing the 9-Piece Hole Punch set (#83709) at $42.75 might make sense. Otherwise, consider the De-Riveting Seydel Pliers or Romel Tool.

Your Harpsmith, Kinya
