Greg, Folding Stool with Wheels- Harbor Freight #44061 . Approximately 13" x 13" x 16" tall. The casters which are pretty poor in quality but the whole thing cost about $8 on sale, got what I paid for.. I have worked on it in the folded positition also, using it as a rolling kneeler. I'm 5'8" so it may be a bit high for you. Hope this helps, Dale -----Original Message----- From: owner-pianotech@ptg.org [mailto:owner-pianotech@ptg.org] On Behalf Of Greg Newell Sent: Wednesday, November 21, 2001 4:32 PM To: pianotech@ptg.org Subject: Re: key leveling -- crown? Dale, Would you care to share any more info on this stool? Also, How tall are you? I'm wondering if someone 6' and shrinking might benefit from this as well.

Same with dip, just takes practice which will yield pretty accurate results. Your method would probably work but I haven't tried it.As to the glides, I don't change them because it will affect the leveling. You have a good point about the wear factor but it has not caused me a problem yet. I still have to do some fine leveling in the piano. By the way, Harbor Freight sells a small folding stool on wheels that puts me about the right height for key leveling and damper work on grands. Makes life a little easier.Best,Dale -- Greg Newell mailto:gnewell@ameritech.net ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
