I have a heated, heavily insulated, and usually very busy shop. I have a winch mounted on an overhead beam to lift the heavy cast iron plates in and out of pianos gently and with control. This is handy to have when replacing pin blocks or doing bridge repairs.
To get the piano to and from my shop, I have a custom built piano moving trailer to handle damage free transportation with ease along with the usual piano moving skids, pads, straps and dolly. I do a lot of the moving by myself, but for the more difficult moves, such as those involving flights of stairs, I hire piano moving specialists. After moving pianos for over 35 years, I've had to admit I'm getting a bit too olde to be doing this much longer, however - I'll still move the easy ones.
I've had a lot of pianos and their parts pass through my shop: from keytops to pin blocks, from making custom parts to modifying the piano cabinet.
