    Movers have misplace the hardware. The leg bolts are 12 mm but a 1.75 pitch does not work. Anyone know the pitch?

    Fro the record, here's the info on the bolts for Yamaha and Kawai. I'll add more as I move other pianos with bolts.

    Yamaha
    Legs, front: 12 mm x 1.5 x 70 mm; rear: Lag bolt, 12.5 mm shank 105 mm long (1/2" x 4" will work)
    Lyre: 10 mm x 1.5 x 45 mm

    Kawai
    Legs: 12 mm x 1.75 x 70 mm
    Lyre:  12 mm x 1.75 x 85 mm (or counter bore 15 mm for a 70 mm to fit)

As often as the question comes up, a continually updated list or spreadsheet with this information for as many pianos as can be accumulated would be a fine resource. Only two people would bother to save it, but that's inevitable. Nice Fro, by the way Ron N
