Saw the article on the front page! Thought about the business potential this morning. Trouble would be the cost of shipping, it's about 350lbs!

edit: That is the stripped weight! It was originally ≈400lbs (guessing). Evidently most of the weight is in the metal frame.

If you remove the working parts, do they get much lighter? I don't know much about the internals of pianos.
The working parts, no. The iron frame, yes. But getting the frame out can be pretty rough.
