Having a piano built into your sewing table is sort of like playing computer games while you're supposed to be doing office work.

Wasn't that that FREE one someone posted about on PW a year or so ago??? Some guy wanted to know if he should bring it inside because his girlfriend really wanted a piano and they were destitute. Is that the one?

This was the thread

Nah, it was a different one. I went back and re-read the discussion. The one they found had probably had originally had the pedals on a lyre and the lyre was missing.

But it was in similar condition.

What's very cool for me is that we see the back - with the board removed. It appears that it is an overdamper action striking from the back.... where are the tuning pins?!? So to tune/ mute this piano, it needs to be moved away from the wall. Two person job to tune?

Dawg won't hunt....

You would have to relearn how to play the piano to play this one. The bass is in the right hand and the trebel is in the left!

Hope you didn't pay too much for this one...
