Dropped Piano

[David ilvedson]

Well of course on occasion movers have to move a piano up a 
flight of stairs with some tricky turns.  I had a rebuild that 
came back to a just remodeled home and was expressly told 
not to touch the walls.  So the movers picked up the grand 
piano/on its side/moving board, two on each side and walked 
it up the steps.  Not scratch!  Those were the correct tools for 
that move...
