words technical w/piano question

[Greg Granoff]

Well, actually I've not seen that effect so as you'd notice because of the
padded block that is placed under the lyre to enable removal of the bass
side leg and on which the box pivots.  I can see it happening if the block
is bare wood, though.  I assume that even with the padded block, a kind of
very slight rounding of the left bottom edge of the box might occur given
enough moves and enough time.
