Flying Piano (reprise)

Flying Piano (reprise)

What goes in through the bedroom, comes out through the bedroom.

And so it was for our 7’ 4” Falcone piano. The difference was that Martinson Piano Movers used a crane on the way in and a forklift-like machine on the way out.

Although the forklift seemed to be a more secure way to hang the instrument, it meant that it had to squeeze between two cypress trees. Unfortunately, a branch made a small scratch in the finish. No big deal, it was easily repaired.

Something to bear in mind: the Falcone weighs over 1100 pounds.

If I didn’t have complete confidence in his company, I would have been terrified to learn that Eric had never operated this kind of machine before.
