If there is an incline, it might help to orient the casters 90
degrees to the direction of the slope so the piano doesn't roll into
the wall if someone leans on it or opens the lid.<br>

A long time ago, my band played during a riverboat dinner cruise. We
got hit with a heavy wake from an ore boat, and I lost my balance
and fell right off the bench. I think It was more entertaining than
the music we were doing.<br>

<div>I presume this a grand piano. In that case it won't damage
the piano. The player, however, might need to get used to
playing at an angle. I played a piano on a cruise once, as the
boat was rocking. (It was early morning, and no one else was
around). For me it was the most unusual feeling ever not to
have the piano "flat".</div>

<br>
My client will move to an old farmhouse with uneven
floors where the piano, a S&S rebuilt, is going
to be placed. Will the uneven floor damage the piano
over time? Note, <br>
I do not know the quality and unevenness of the
floor. Thanks for your comments.<br>
