The yardstick is what they used to use to discipline the hands that made mistakes so that it would stop happening. LOL

 

I was the only smart kid. When the nuns said to put your hand out I said NO WAY.  Then I got hit on the head.  That's why I'm the way I am today.

Is that what that one thing was, a yardstick?  I thought it was a piano hinge, LOL.

When I was a kid, my  violin teacher never used a yardstick on my hands, it was a wooden cribbage board. She was trying to teach me vibrato.

The guy is good. Wonder if he's Irish.
