Second post and already I need help

<< < (4/4)

Update, after a good second look at everything going on I find that the larger idle wheel will be to large to fit in with the hoses, front board and pipes that will still mount to the front. It is mostly the hoses and their lay that is in the way. I have pipes that lay under the wheels behind the main viewed pipes. I am reverting back to the gears. I purchased these: http://www.mcmaster.com/#catalog/118/1071/=hv0zkq

I hope that these fit as the gears are a bit unclear as to what I need. The space I need to span from centers is 2". They are at home now because they were delivered this AM and I have not seen them to confirm. If they are off just a bit I can compensate for that. It's the 2" that is way to much.

Update, I have finally assembled the drive and gears together. Although there is more work to be done the gears I purchased work very well. I like the idea. However I won't be posting pictures as my work is not very great. I have had to weld up the crank and I am not that great welding so things are together but look shabby. But bottom line the idea worked and is operating as I would have hoped. I've been building the rest of the organ and should be playing it by Christmas hopefully.
