Cello pegs work, but they still have the concave surface on the grip, and the grips are pretty large. A flat surface on each side with a slight taper is better for the tourne-a-gauche to hold. The violin peg is supported on both sides of the string winding. The HG peg is only supported on one side, so the peg must be thicker to withstand the tension. Alden
