Porcelain Carving
Is the cocktail piano again are becoming porcelain rollers on the legs?

I am restoring a 1880 walnut, high back piano stool. It is in beautiful condition. The point is that each of the four legs has a hole at the bottom that resembles a metal pin porcelain roller installed on it. My stool is a rare type that had no metal and glass ball feet. Each leg is drained and slightly carved. I have a set of rollers that look great in the stool, I do not want to use them if this type of stool ever had. Any suggestions?

Well, I have a 1939 Kimball & co. piano stool and matching flat. The piano has steel supports and brass wheels. feces has brass plugs in the end with what looks like a steel knob 1 / 4 inch thick and round 1 / 2 inch. about the size of an M & M. I hope that helps.

How do you tell someone very good for weight loss?

Not that there's a problem with it, I am concerned about the health of my Mans. He already has pressure blood pressure, and has been struggling with their cholesterol levels as well. I used to be in excellent shape, but since retiring from the Navy, you just let go. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I suggest getting him to exercise with you. Maybe eat health. You can talk to him directly about it, but choose your words wisely, some people tend to be very offended when you tell them you have weight. Hang on and good luck.

Stone Carving
How can I find the stone / rock to carve? Where can I find size classes in Shreveport, Louisiana?

I would try to stone carving, but I do not know what I'm doing – Is there a way to find local sculptors for class? I've tried local schools, etc. but no luck. Moreover, I know you can buy soapstone, alabaster, etc. through the Internet and pay a ton of shipping, but is there any stone that can only lead and buy locally (or dig myself)?

There are stores in Metairie and Lafayette rock that can sell you different types of stone to practice. Probably other but do not know me. They can also tell you what kind of natural stone work in your area and where to find it. Try also serpentine. You may want to work its way to the marble, which is pretty relentless. Most good art shops can sell a carving tools. The Red River Sculpture Society includes some sculptors in Louisiana, and should be able to direct some lessons. They have a good website. Good luck.
