Mike: Don't worry, the piano came as a fixture with Marg. It was given to her by her parents close to 60 years ago. I've been dealing with it 43 years. Years ago when our girls were little, we decided to move it from one side of house to the other. There was a hallway between front door and stairs to upstairs, and the two doors we had to go through were about 4" less than length of piano apart, not directly opposite either as we found out. We got piano stuck in the doorways with Marg. at one end and I at the other, with the girls sitting on the stairs. I vaguely remember Marg. keeping the girls calm, I know I had to go out and come in front door. After about an hour we wiggled it loose and continued. I think the girls thought they were imprissoned on the stairs forever.

Then we traded houses with my dad on the farm. Dad thought he was going to make things easy and proposed a trade with Marg on pianos and deep freeze's. She went along with him on the deep freeze, his 23 cubic ft, ours 17 cubic ft but new. There was no dice on piano, he soon found out why, we figured Marg's Gerhard Heintzman weighed twice as much as my mothers piano. That was the only time we ever picked that piano straight up, since that it's been a ramp. Dad didn't make a good deal that time, he had to replace the newer deep freeze within 5 years. We got roughly 30 years out of his oldie.

Today's Featured Article - Fabrication (Who Me? Make it myself?) - by Chris Pratt. First of all, what are the reasons for not fabricatin your own parts? Most judgements on what should be purchased rather than fabricated stem from: Originality - If the tractor restoration is to be 100% original, it is likely that you should spend the time and money to locate the component in the used or New-old-stock market. Since this can be extremely difficult, you may want to fabricate the item or purchase a modern replacement temporarily, but eventually, you s ... [Read Article]
