My wife and I had a similar naive acquisition. After tuning, re-tuning, re-tuning in 24 hour periods we got close but I figured something about the age, possibly the method of transport compromised it's ability to hold a tune. Now what to do with this 400 pound object in our 6th story apartment...

We made a piano desk. Took about 2-3 days to complete. Typing on it now matter of fact! :) Be happy to answer any questions.
- stephengillie 14y agoHow much does it weigh, compared to a standard upright piano?
- stephenapple 14y agoSurprisingly about the same. As you see all the strings are out as well as the keys and hammers. All total probably shed about 25-35 pounds. I'd say it weighs 325-375 pounds total. Evidently most of the weight is in the metal frame.
