> you mentioned that you put car molding around the sides of your pianos. I'm > wondering if you did such a thing and if it in fact worked as planned. G'day Joel, I saw last year in the Steinway factory in Hamburg that they use dense foam in about 8" x 2" strips, it looked like a giant rubber band, the strip was cut to fit around the piano and joined (sorry, I didn't notice how it was joined, probably plastic weld or maybe a scarf joint glued). It was thick enough and dense enough to protect the finish if it collided with another piano. Cheap and practical if somewhat ugly...but then it's only on when the piano is being stored or moved. There were 1" dowel pegs on the walls all over the place to hang these on when not in use. Hope it helps...
