Electric Glue Pot & Upright Piano Repair Dolly
By David Dewey

[ Ref. 181119 MMDigest ]

Craig, you can use a small individual size crock pot -- cheap at a
store, even cheaper at a thrift shop.  Either put the glue directly into
the pot, or put into a jar and put water in the pot surrounding the jar.

As for the upright piano dolly, that's a _great_ deal, folks.  I bought
one years ago from a retiring technician, and now I don't know how I did
without it.  Not that I use it every day, but often enough; it has saved
the day for me multiple times.

Bottom board split?  Tip the piano on its back and fix it, easy as pie.
Bad castor?  Voila!  I also used it one time where the entire bottom
of the piano case and back was coming apart, not your usual job.  The
piano was on its back for over a week doing that repair, but it's a
good piano once again.
