Love the ramp method! I built your dad’s winch and that works just wonderfully, but the ramp looks even easier to use. (Although it might not be usable in a narrow, confining space in a home, so the winch is still a good backup method… ) A question: How thick is the plywood on the ramp? And what are the straps on the ramp for? Your videos are delightfully enjoyable.

I enjoyed the balancing-on-the-knee thing! Try doing any of that with the huge old Bluthner I put new castors on for a customer a few weeks ago; it was as much as I could do to get it to start tilting, on my upright piano tilter (and I'm 6'1"). Actually, putting it back upright was easier (strapped to the tilter of course).

Your demonstration is impressive even though the piano seems to be quite light. Now, how would you move the piano if you needed to put it on an elevator and it doesn't fit in its normal position? Could I place the piano completely upright on one of its sides?

Yes it's very common to rotate the piano 90 degrees onto its side

The backbreaker is the fastest method. I did it 100s of times and had no trouble with it. Has also the advantage that you need minimal tools, only the trolley. The cradle is allright also, but it is a heavy and cumbersome thing. I have a foldable version so that it fits in a normal car. It is put together with just 4 heavy nuts. I use it only for laying the piano flat on its back.

I think I am going to get help should I need to move my piano. Been thinking about doing it. Could mostly roll, but have to get it across carpet. In the states, we would call it a dolly...

I've seen someone use the first method, he's pretty strong :) the 2nd would probably be my choice even though it's tedious, the 3rd is hard to do in tight spaces. I remember about 20 years ago or so I was working at a piano store tuning pianos, and I saw someone in his mid / late 50s or so, possibly pushing 60+, without special tools (I've heard some do exist), tip a Steinway D on its side (or set it up, I forget which) all on his own, without anyone else helping.

I'm a retired technician. Ohhhh, the stories I have about customers that moved or attempted to move their own 88. From broken pianos to broken people. A few hundred bucks/quid to move it or pay for property/piano/chiropractor work. Rather, pay the "man" to move the bloody thing!!

I do hope that the "cradle" in the third method folds up in some way. It'd take up a ridiculous amount of space otherwise.

I had one about that size while in college. Moved into a second floor apartment. My friend who was a lineman (american football) and I picked it up and carried it upstairs. The people around the pool applauded when we got to the top. Someone yelled "you're nuts". Young and dumb.

Pretty sure that frame is empty. There is no way a man of your size is deadlifting an upright that size with the harp inside, unless they started making them out of carbon fiber instead of cast iron.
