(They're like teeth that have been knocked out: much much longer than you'd expect.) The keys that I saved for a long time but never found a use for. You get a specific understanding of its inner workings, even if you think you already know how it functions.
I think we sold the cast iron soundboard as scrap for a few dollars, and I did save some of the larger pieces of wood, which I used to build a bed for my two-year old son a few years later.Īs a side note, if you've never taken apart a piano, I highly recommend it. It couldn't be tuned, and it took up too much room to keep if it wasn't going to be played. only to dismantle it by hand less than a year later and slowly throw it away. We didn't know enough about pianos to know better, so we spent considerable time and effort to transport it 40 miles and up a short flight of stairs into our new home. Shortly after we got married, my wife and I took possession of a 1918 upright piano that had not been tuned in a long time.
A piano that has not been regularly tuned will lose its ability to stay tuned, turning it into a very large and heavy place to display sheet music, just like a car that never gets an oil change will eventually become an immobile scrap metal sculpture.
