Moving to new home and would prefer to get the Weissenborns off the floor but the headstock shape eliminates a lot of hangers. Anyone have a good idea of how to hang them on the wall where they can be easily taken down and played? Thanks.

	Slidennis says: 8/27/2017 9:05:17 AM The leather straps work fine. That would be my suggestion. +1 there. You can make a similar gizmo from a piece of heavy string or cord in a pinch. Easily made to your custom specs. I have also used rubber coated copper wire as well. I made some tuning key hanger hooks out of coat hanger wire years ago. Look around. Use your imagination. Thankfully Weissenborns tend to be lightweight and the tuning winders won't get stressed much.
