Street Organ: Drilling holes in your work.

http://streetorgan.blogspot.com/2009/04/drilling-holes-in-your-work.html

Monday, 20 April 2009. Drilling holes in your work. I had to cut holes in my work so that I could screw into it. This was to attach wooden blocks to the back of it.

Street Organ: Do the twist

http://streetorgan.blogspot.com/2009/04/do-twist.html

Sunday, 19 April 2009. These are the mitered pipes which fit into the organ casing. Its a bit of a shame really as they are so pretty. The tone is very slightly different after they are mitered. I think they look great and would like to experiment making more shapes in the future. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Time and personal management.

Street Organ: Bellow pressure 3

http://streetorgan.blogspot.com/2009/04/bellow-pressure-3.html

Sunday, 19 April 2009. I received many recommendations from fellow organ builders. See the comment section on this blog post: http:/ tracker-bar.blogspot.com/2009/04/april-showers.html. I also was very kindly offered a 2 part DVD from a man in Australia on how he made his organ. So I wasn't alone with my problem. I decided to remake the valves to make them more efficient. I also decided to put a strip of card beneath them to make sure that the area below them was as flat as possible. Lazer cut organ kits.

Street Organ: Get a handel on it

http://streetorgan.blogspot.com/2009/04/get-handel-on-it.html

Monday, 20 April 2009. Get a handel on it. I really liked these gramophone handles. So I chose to use them as the handle for my street organ. I had to work out a way to make the chosen handle the right length and attach it to the Organs crank mechanism. I used this oil to help the drill make a hole in the handle. After drilling a hole into the handle I could then screw into the crank mechanism and handle so that it would stay in place. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Time and personal management.

Street Organ: Test test test.

http://streetorgan.blogspot.com/2009/04/test-test-test.html

Monday, 20 April 2009. To test whistles for tuning and air pressure you can cover some holes with tape. Melvyn Wright does a Test Roll, which is really useful for setting up. It saves you taping up the holes whilst tuning. It plays octaves and other useful tests like speed and repetition. 20 April 2009 at 23:51. That is useful to know. I'll look it up. Any good websites you could recommend for further research would also really help me out. Its really crunch time now! 21 April 2009 at 08:55. 20 note John...

Street Organ: Bellow pressure 2

http://streetorgan.blogspot.com/2009/04/bellow-pressure-2.html

Sunday, 19 April 2009. I found that one of the valves had been stuck under the reservior. Some of the styrene stiffeners had come off. I didn't want to take any chances so I set about making all new card stiffeners which would stick better and be less likely to rub on the fabric. I also desided to re make all the valves using a new method I had learnt. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Time and personal management.

Street Organ: Connecting pipes to board

http://streetorgan.blogspot.com/2009/04/connecting-pipes-to-board.html

Sunday, 19 April 2009. Connecting pipes to board. I decided to use a very dark wood dye to colour the board which the pipes go on. Its not completely black but very dark brown. This makes a really nice contrast. In the end I decided to not use the metal inserts as I didn't find it hard to gently bend the pipes to the tracker bar. Its like a forest of pipes down there! It is now almost impossible to get to the pipes at the back so I hope its right. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Lazer cut organ kits.

Street Organ: A little short.

http://streetorgan.blogspot.com/2009/04/little-short.html

Monday, 20 April 2009. I've found that it would be more helpful to have a slightly larger handle so that its easier to pump the organ quicker. Roseanne, the reason for the longer handle is that you can turn it more smoothly. Those little handles you have are really nice.I have similar one on the Rewind.but when you play they tend to give a 'jerky' motion.the longer the handle the smoother the turning. 26 April 2009 at 10:30.
