I’ll be honest with you, I’ve always felt a little exposed sat playing a keyboard as opposed to a real piano. There’s nothing to hide behind, you’re sat behind a keyboard stand that for all intents and purposes closely resembles an ironing board with it’s unfolded x-frame.
Well this month since I’ve been playing a Sunday afternoon gig at The Imperial Hotel in Blackpool, I’ve decided that enough is enough, I need something to hide my legs behind!
The result is a little carpentry project using a single sheet of 8ft x 4ft hardboard, 6 brass hinges and some black wood stain.
Click on the gallery below for pictures or better still why not pop down to the Imperial one Sunday lunch and have a listen too!
The best part is that once the ‘lid’ slides out of the top the frame can then be folded in on itself for easy storage.
I’m impressed Mike 🙂 Looks like a proper piano now :-)x
