That is really cool. Maybe I want one to take up the space left over in the garage after that stage dolley I never use. I contemplated the potential for such contraptions during the move. Considered building a one-man tilter, too. I just hate having to trust someone with something I value so much. This last crew made me much more comfortable in that regard, though. Still, if there's nuclear war or bird flu breaks out and I'm the last man on Earth and I want to move, one of those would sure be handy.

No, I don't think we've seen that one.... I wonder how much those "pianos as sideboards" really got played. Seems like most of the pianos I see have lots of stuff that lives on top of the piano. If you couldn't play until the whole thing was opened???

Here's another one of those car/piano combos:

Now that's what you called a ruffled piano.

Having just visited my favorite fabric shop in the whole world this weekend (Zimmans, in Boston) I was wondering the other day if anyone has ever upholstered their piano top. It could serve the dual purpose of muffling he sound and accenting one's decor. Imagine, you could hang some really fancy tassling all around the rim. I saw some with bells! . . . . the possibilities are endless.

After Monday and Tuesday, even the calendar says WTF.

Oh my Goddess....

I never thought of this...

I'm a Belly Dancer - I could go *NUTS* with this idea. Beaded fringe... Tassles... Bells and other tinkly, shiny bits...

Sigh....
