Doug:
 
Classroom pianos, in particular,will be moved regardless of your “rules”.  We decided that any piano in ait-will-move-no-matter-what-we-say we put on stage trucks.  Before that we hadlegs break.  Now we don’t.

Query: we have a few pianos that need to be able to be movedwithin classrooms, but we would like to restrict the movement so as not toblock other uses of the room or damage screens, etc.

 

We tried caster cups. As you can imagine, the pianos wereoff them in short order, I suspect because NO movement was intolerable by some.

 

Ideas, anyone?
