[pianotech] Piano dolly question

[David Love]

That was my thought (change to single legs first) but was hoping for some
alternative.  This is in a college and they (students, yipes!) want to be
able to move it around so the individual cups are too dangerous still, I
think, especially with those small wheels and carpet in the room.  But
replacing legs on a piano that is otherwise in such crappy condition is hard
to justify.  I was hoping for some light bulb to go off but so far the
room’s still dark.

Jansen makes good stuff, but these specifically say that they are not
designed to be used instead of a piano truck.  I could see a lot of
splinters developing at the first threshold.

IMMHO, 'twould be better to replace with single legs, then place on
spider/truck.

Any ideas as to what to do with this type of piano in order to get it on a
tripod dolly (institutional setting).
