Or... you can do it the Laurel and Hardy way. Visit the official Laurel and Hardy page and view the video of how they did it in The Music Box, (1932). They give you four formats in which to view that clip from the film. It is VERY funny. http://www.laurel-and-hardy.com/goodies/vid-down/download.html Warning: Don't try this at home. -- Geoff Sykes -- Los Angeles -----Original Message----- From: pianotech-bounces at ptg.org [mailto:pianotech-bounces at ptg.org] On Behalf Of PIANO2NR at aol.com Sent: Saturday, September 01, 2007 7:06 PM To: pianotech at ptg.org Subject: Re: Hoisting pianos On 4 occasions I have hoisted grand pianos to a second floor balcony with an engine hoist with and electric winch attached to the end and two big guys standing on the base for a counterbalance. The hoist was disassembled to move upstairs. A 2X4 was screwed to the edge of the balcony to keep it from rolling off.
