Looks like a sail boat to me :)... found the following quote from his website interesting tho.... under Project III Cheers RicB "David Klavins of Klavins Pianos proposes to revolutionize this situation with a highly sophisticated piano action using state-of-the-art materials. Klavins provides 20 years of experience in piano building, design and maintenance, and contemporary technologies provide bearings with under 0.1% of the friction of felt and light metals and plastics with appropriate flexibility but zero twisting, warping or humidity distortion to replace delicate wooden parts. The result is a piano action with unprecedented precision and durability. Its virtually friction-free construction offers incalculable advantages to the pianist alongside enormously reduced maintenance costs. It can be simply installed in any Steinway but can be built to suit any other grand piano as well."
