I forgot the picture. Here are all 20 pipes. I think the 5 biggest ones will be mitered after they are glued togather. This will make them fit in the case. :wave: :wave: :wave: |

This sounds like a fun project, Wes. Well, except that I have such a hard time with wood, you know.. How large is the organ when it's finished? It looks like it would be just the neatest thing to run with a small-ish steam engine. Kind of like a miniature calliope. |

I had a chance to draw up a fancy crank handle. I wanted it to look old. I'll machine this out of Brass and machine a brass hub for the big end and a wood handle for the small end. I'll make it on the CNC after work one day this week. :wave: :wave: :wave: |

This thing will be a real hoot when you get it done! Best, BW |
| Powder Keg:
Hey Bob. How have you been? Tonight I stayed after work and made a jig to hold my crank handle. I had a couple of problems with my program. But I got it. Took about 15 min to run all togather. I'm planing on staying tomorrow to. The crank for this is built up and I want to machine some fancy webs for the throws on the crank. I'll try and get a video. :wave: :wave: :wave: |
