  String Gauge for a Vintage National

Hello All,

This is my first post, but I'm jumping in with both feet....picked up a vintage National (1931 Triolian). It came with light gauge strings (and a kooky palm tree scene stenciled on the back:-). I threw on some mediums (.13) last night and I'm wondering if I can go up to heavies w/o putting to much tension on the neck.

Also, are there any tricks to stringing up the classical style tuners?

Thanks!
