[CAUT] Tipping Casters

[Roger Jolly]

Hi Jon,
               Jurgen is your best bet, he is now carrying a good selection 
of good quality German castors.   You could get lucky and get a new 
replacement.
Failing that. plug the old mortice with a maple dowel using epoxy to glue 
into position.  Build up the outer area of the leg with epoxy to obtain a 
snug fit for the ferrule.
Secure the ferrule with screws set in virgin wood, well away from the old 
screw holes.   Also make sure that the base of the tenon has a flat face to 
fit with the bottom of the ferrule cup.
Not the best arrangement for a caster carrying this type of load.  If the 
piano is not going to be moved much, it will more than suffice.
Regards Roger
