transporting grand actions

[Tom Cole]

A way to assist getting an action into the back of a car (station wagon
or sedan with folding rear seat) is with an approx 4 foot long board, 1"
x 8" or so. This allows the action, especially a vertical, to slide over
tool boxes and anything that might damage the action. A plus is that
this same board can be turned "athwartships" to serve as a workbench.
