Hello Bob,  I saw your posting on the MMD concerning organ moving.
I thought I'd pass on my tale of woe.

About 20 years ago, before I was married and still lived with my
parents, I received a phone call one Saturday morning.  It was about
7:00 AM and I had just gotten to sleep after working a shift as a
locomotive engineer for Conrail.  Half-asleep and bone tired, I dimly
heard the voice of my friend, George Pasquaye, ask me if I wanted a 2/7
Wurlitzer organ in playing condition for $1,500.00.  I woke up quick!

The catch was the organ had to be removed before noon that very day.
The owner had put off trying to move the organ from the home of his
recently divorced ex-wife.  When he finally realized that there was
no way he could move it or store it he decided to sell.  When he told
George about it, there was only hours left until the court decreed him
to have abandoned it.

The owner and George and I to the house with a U-Haul and very few
tools.  Our goal was to get it out of the house and into the street
before noon , then worry about loading it.  No pipe trays, one dolly
and lots of curse words followed.

How does this tie into your request?  Well, not very satisfactorily;
we literally had to cut the cables with an ax!  It felt like cutting
off my own leg!  The hours I spent ringing out those wires were torture
-- I'll _never_ do that again!

Hope you have an easier time of it than I did!

Sincerely,
