Default recycling piano wood

I got a few pallets once, and took several hours to take them apart.
After lots of effort, it really didn't yield all that much usable wood.
It's an experience I'll only repeat if I really _really_ want the wood.

A piano is likely to be 10% wood 90% other. What are you going to do
with the other once you get it?


If it's an old enough piano, the keys will be ivory and
ebony. That's an "other" that's probably well worth having.
