WP is not a dictionary. Unclear what this article adds to the project. It is just describing a hand cart used for moving pianos. There is not even a dedicated source, just a mention in a book on piano tuning. ‡ Єl Cid of ᐺalencia ᐐT₳LKᐬ 05:07, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  • Merge into hand truck. It is basically a variation of that tool. bd2412 T 23:25, 4 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merging makes sense to me. Brentonstrine —Preceding undated comment added 04:47, 5 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • El Cid, does the entire book have to be about tilters to be a valid source? When you say "project" do you mean Wikipedia? Can't adding information about cool and unique tools be enough? This article isn't about the word "piano tilter" but the concept, that's the difference between an encyclopedia and a dictionary. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Brentonstrine (talkcontribs) 05:09, 5 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect and briefly merge to hand truck, as per BD2412. OK, so a tool exists, but each one needs to meet WP:GNG and be written about in depth by independent sources. I couldn't easily find any on this topic, but I did find this that shows me what it looks like and how it works. Seems rather like a hand truck to me. . .though it is kind of cool.

  • Merge to into hand truck and redirect seems a sensible solution. Sam Sailor 22:14, 7 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
