Lifting upright piano

[Porritt, David]

I think these things <http://www.pljansen.com/serv05.htm>  work really
well on console and studio pianos.  I wish I had a set!

One left, one right.   Turn and lift...

If you are alone, a little left, alittle right, a little left, a little
right, a little left, a little right...

Easy for mooving into a room (lift only 2 or 3 cm) but good for lifting
pianos up to place the dolly.

Need not so many place.

		I frequently move  console, spinet and studio upright
pianos and I have trouble lifting one end of the piano up the first 10
or 12 inches.  Once I get it up where I can regain my purchase, I can
easily lift it up the rest of the way to where the dolly will fit under
the middle of the piano.  Do any of you know of any type of lever system
that would lift the piano that first amount?  It needs to be portable
and easy to use.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.

		Thanks, Jim Johnson
