I often use a widger when I work on Broadwood pianos. It is the best tool when you need to widge something.

Don't do much widging and have never have any luck at all with my broad wood widger.

Thing is just too wide to use with any effectiveness.

When I really have to widge something, I generally use the narrow one, which is so much easier to control on a really deep and long widge.
