When moving into our house years ago I got our couch stuck in the stairs. I had to sawzall it into 3 pieces to get it out and take it to the dump
Long time ago, first time my wife left me alone for a week since we got together, I decided to go on a Xanax bender. I didn’t remember a fucking thing. But, we had a basement with a spiral type stairway where the washer and dryer were. She came home and went to wash her clothes and yelled, “what the actually FUCK!?” there was an entire sheet of plywood wedged in that stairwell, impossibly stuck. She demanded an explanation that I simply could not provide so I played it off like I was doing a building project down there and it got stuck. I had to sawzall that thing to get it out. When we went down we discovered I had built an entire grow cabinet for weed which was entirely up and running. I was like, “surprise!”
She was surprised alright, but not as much as I was lol.
Is this Dirk Gently’s house?
I have a reservation at Esprit de Escalaire for 3 weeks ago if you’re free.
Dirk Digglers house
I want the American version of this couch!
There is a pullout bed in that couch, which makes this even more difficult because it is heavier, pops open when tipped, and will put you in the hospital.
I bet the owner went back in time and opened a door to help move the sofa and then closed it, the door vanished and now the sofa is stuck in an impossible position.
Welp, I guess we’re never going upstairs again.
Just take the feet off. It’ll go.
I can hear that picture
Looks to me like they were trying to get it down narrow stairs into a finished basement. I’ve been in the same situation many a time. This is solvable, though still a pain in the ass even when you get it just right.
This looks a lot like a house i lived in during my studies. We had to known down the rail… :))
ETA: i mean it REALLY looks like the same staircase, including the little door.
It always felt like something was missing from the stairs. This wasn’t it, but it was a good try.
My grandpa got a pool table in his basement in a very similar stair condition. To this day, I have no idea how beyond the fact that he had a come along tied to a 4x4 across the basement door. We just left it down there when we sold the house.
I still have no idea how people get grand pianos into their houses.
We have that problem with our late parents house. The grand piano was placed into a second-floor room by removing the window casing and using a crane.
We are hoping that the piano will sell with the house.
the legs come off a grand, they turn it 90d and wheel it on a cart. seen this done, required tall doors tho.
Hmmm interesting. Still sounds very difficult.
it’s quite the workout even with a bunch of big guys and the right equipment.
First they buy and place the piano, THEN they build the house.
This actually happens. Had a relative that bought one of a row of townhouses being built back in the 60s. The company building the houses thought it would be a sweet incentive to include a piano with each one, so now everyones house in that row has a busted old stand up piano in the basement that’s impossible to remove without some sort of demolition.
WOW. When the app popped up your comment, I saw the first sentence and I tried to guess which of my comments it was a response to. Then I went like “no way”.
No matter how hard you try to come up with some surrealist bullshit, chances are someone had thought of the same and went like “this is a great idea”.
This is why it can be easy to find a free piano. You can take it if you can take it.
Why anyone pays for a piano is beyond me. If you’ll take it out of someone’s house they’ll gladly hand it to you. The very great musician Neko Case made a piano orchestra out of several free pianos she put in her barn to record with.
Got u fam
For the railing or the couch?
…
Yes.
The wall? Or maybe just saw the stairs apart. Fuck it, burn the house down and start over.
