For years, classrooms had electrical cords running across the floor to overhead projectors at the front of the class. Since it's mostly the professor who walks up front, I'd say the risk of a cord in one of those rubber protectors is minimal, and the benefits to the piano are great. I have pictures that I'll post of using the iron-on tape for backcovers (thanks to Mark Cramer for his idea). It's fast, and very neat, and for verticals you don't need access to the back, so there's no Velcro at all. I iron the tape to the backframe first, peel off its backing (leaving just a strip of glue behind), then tack up the cover *without trimming it*. Leave an excess on the sides and bottom. Iron it in position at the top, then one side, using the excess so you can position it without burning your hand. Then go back and trim with a sharp knife, and you have a great result. --Cy-- Cy Shuster, RPT Albuquerque, NM www.shusterpiano.com www.facebook.com/shusterpiano SNC00065 SNC00066 SNC00068 SNC00069 SNC00071 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
