(i.e from knee to ankle length rather than mini-skirt) It is a school environment with ceiling fans, so air circulation is a big factor. Does D-C need Beta testers? Are there any cover makers who regularly make cloth ones? Any idea how much extra one might have to shell out? Anybody have experience with such things? >> CONRAD: What might work much better than a skirt to counteract the wind/air would be to install a mylar sheet under the rim of the piano cutting out an area for the dc water tank to fit through it. I have tried it on a piano sitting directly in front of a large cold-air return and it worked wonders after being in place for just three months. Tuning stabilized on the Yamaha G2 into which I placed the mylar. Got the mylar from Dampchaser though I think it might be available other places. Bob Bergantino, RPT Willoughby Hills, Ohio
