[pianotech] ergonomic grand regulation ideas?

[Gerald Groot]

A friend of mine who is good at building things, built me a small, square,
close the ground, about 18" wide with 4 double wheeled castors to roll
around on either in my shop where I use it most for leveling keys or, for
use at the piano in the home.  It works great.  I can roll around to where I
need to go.  It is the perfect height for my shop but, a tad tall for
leveling keys in the home but, beats the devil out of squatting on my knee's
instead.

I have an adjustable round stool in wheels which I bought at Harbour Freight
and it really helps.  I also use it when I'm regulating capstans on the
bench as well.

I find grand keyleveling/dip, damper work...etc, uncomfortable.  Working at
the bench is so nice, but alas, I end up inside the carcass for way more
time than I would like.

Anyone have any comfortable approaches to sitting at the piano while
regulating action and dampers?
