Grand Piano Restoration: Dismantle, Label, and Store



The piano will be apart for a period of time. It will be impossible to remember the way things came apart exactly and this is why it is so important to take a lot of notes, and label things as to where they are located and how they came apart.
Take notes or photographs of all procedures.

The piano arrived in the usual way; brought into the shop and set up on its legs by the movers. I place my grand’s on a shop truck that was built out of heavy timber. This sets them up high off the floor so I can work on the insides without bending over all day long.

Here are some early photos of the cabinet dismantle. Please start at photo number 35.
