Piano Truck

[Farrell]

Three casters alone will cost $108 plus tax and shipping - that's almost 1/2 the $267 price for the whole thing already. Plus your time for measuring, etc., going to the welder, etc., hmmmm......I dunno.

Keep in mind I'm in Florida. We have a "special" breed (or is that in-bred) of welders it would seem.......
