Storing on it's side

[Joseph Garrett]

A few more problems: 1. Action shift stop felt will compress, over time,
causing the hammers to mis-align. 2. Can cause the shanks to warp. 3. Opens
the door for a lot of dangerous situations. Would suggest an "Anvil" case
for it. They are much easier to set a piano up/down, than from a skid board.
However, the above problems will still persist. The "Anvil" case is very
expensive, but will keep the pianos condition better. Also, it will allow
the "stored" piano to be moved around without the lose of the legs, etc.,
and case damage.
