A Practical Guide for Home-Workers, Containing Specifications, Designs, and Full Instructions for Making Every Portion of the Instrument","description":"287 pp. Color fold-out frontispiece, fold-outs and diagrams throughout. With over two hundred illustrations and explanatory diagrams. EXCERPT: \"The method of making pipes of paper, which is an invention of my own, will, I trust, prove a boon to amateurs, especially those of limited means, as by making pipes of this material the most expensive item in the cost of the instrument is reduced to a comparatively nominal sum. I do not think I could adduce better testimony of their efficiency than the fact that a practical organ-builder, who is quite unknown to me, has thought it worth his while to take up the manufacture of these pipes, and to enlarge his workshops for the purpose. I would add that the care, patience, and perseverance devoted to building even a small organ at home must necessarily afford most valuable training to young men, and the moral value of the instrument itself in a home where children are growing up cannot, I think, be over-estimated.\" CONTENTS: Tools and Appliances--Specifications--New Method of Making Pipes; Wood Pipes; Pipes of Metal--Casting Bench and Casting Box--Metal For Pipes--Melting Metal--Necessary Tools--Scale for Cutting Metal for Pipes--Formation of Sheet Metal into Pipes; Reed Pipes; Sound-Board, Wind-Chest, Pallets, Etc.; The Bellows; The Building Frame and Manual Action; The Key-Board; The Stop Action and Couplers; The Pedal Organ: Sound-Board, and Pedal Key-Board; Pedal Action: Coupler Great to Pedlas; The Swell, Etc.--Venetian Swell--Gridiron Swell--Box Swell--Tremulant; Voicing and Toning--Defects and Their Remedies; Tuning; The Case--Pipe Decorations; Defects Generally--List of Stops and Their Combinations--Additional Specifications.","brand":"Ward, Lock \u0026 Co., Limited","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":31075371876422,"sku":"2294593","price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1232\/9510\/products\/2294593.jpg?v=1574133583","url":"https:\/\/ym-demo.myshopify.com\/products\/organ-building-for-amateurs-a-practical-guide-for-home-workers-containing-specifications-designs-and-full-instructions-for-making-every-portion-of-the-instrument","provider":"Yesterday's Muse","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
