<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> I don't know of any =
plans as
such for dollies and skidboards, but maybe look at a few, take some
measurements, and use them as patterns. They're all pretty =
standard, but
be sure to use heavy duty casters on the dolly.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>My first question to this list..if it =
works...:) Surely, I can use the backposts and etc.. wood parts =
from
ex-pianos to build a dolly and grand skid or three!!.. Someone must =
have
plans! I'm a fairly new associate ptg., Was at chicago and met a =
few of
you on this list and that was really cool!! I do brass and =
woodwind
repair for a living and have been gradually learning more about =
pianos...
Anyhoo.....what I'm after is a schematic or plan for a 4 wheel dolly =
and small
grand piano skid for moving pianos. I already have a couple of =
condemned
"mercy-removals" scheduled and would rather re-cycle wood I have and =
possibly
build a better skid... if someone will share!
