unusual upright

[Don]

Hi Scott,

If you are concerned about your tilter failing, simply put down a pair
2X4's flat on the floor and tip the piano onto them. Make sure you have
enough "man power" when you do this and that the piano doesn't "take a
hike" as you tip it.

Do atleast send us the pictures here!
