Transporting a Grand Action

[David Ilvedson]

I pull the action out and CAREFULLY swing it around as if you were going to use the keybed as a work bench.   Then just put you hand around the stack...using it like a handle with the bottom of the keyframe against your leg as you walk.   Keep in mind, the work you are talking about could be done right at the piano saving 2 car trips/travel time!

Subject: Transporting a Grand Action





Hello all,



I will be transporting a grand action to my shop for hammer resurfacing and repinning.  What is the normal procedure for carrying the action from the piano in the home, out the door to the car?  Do I just carry it as is, or is there a special and more professional way to handle this.  I'm not anticipating rain, but I guess I should be prepared for that as well.



Any suggestions would be appreciated.





Thanks,

Matthew
