Need a little help here. Octave pipes should be tuned 20 cents high by either sanding off the tops OR using shades so they end up 20 cents high? Second row of melody pipes (celeste) should be tuned to what? Been reading other sites that say celeste is maybe 4 cents up but not sure. Thanks

The Octave pipes are sanded to be on the sharp side of the note and brought back into tune with the spades
