Laying Down on the Job

[John Ross]

Hi Conrad,
I thought you weighed more than that?
Mind you, I would like to lose about 2 1/2 stone.
Actually, most people, if they tried, could tilt the piano, up. I saw
it demonstrated at a Convention once.
They had people stand on either side to make sure it didn't fall over,
and they tilted it on a folded cargo blanket, to protect the finish. I
seem to recollect that he had a smaller woman from the class,
demonstrate, that she could do it.
Regards,
