[pianotech] Raising a piano

[Allan]

But the tall guy may have tall forelegs. He needs to raise the piano but
leave the pedals on the ground.

 

Am I not right Jack?

In addition to adding blocks under the caster, be sure to make a platform
for under the pedals.

I have a customer who is very tall and would like me to raise her grand
piano four inches higher off the ground.

Has anyone done this before or are there any suggestions? 

 

I was thinking about using some 4x4 blocks and using a boringbit to drill a
cup for the wheels.
