Piano Movers
By Scott Olson

I think that the two movers that Don Teach mentioned only go to and
from dealers and manufactures ...  I think.

I have used Gene Sandburg several times and found him to be _great_!
A good guy that knows the business of moving and knows the instruments
too.  He will get it to you in one piece.

Don't use a common carrier, with the possible exception of a moving-van
line.  Sometimes the van lines will have room in a truck going near
your destination, but a real pro like Gene is a lot better bet.

Re tapered pipe feet:  The original feet were tapered to prevent air
loss -- every little bit counted when powered by sometimes too small
bellows.  I would agree that it doesn't really matter, especially if
you are sealing the feet with burnt shellac .
