I have a large collection of many different scales which we have copied
from original pipes from fair- band- and dance-organs over the last 20
years. We copy the information from each pipe onto what is called a "scale
stick". A ruler to measure the parts is rarely used in a pipe shop. Just
use your protractors to copy the length from the scale stick to adjust
your table saw, or what ever part you are making. I also use proportional
dividers for the mouth work.
If someone needs something special let me know. If you have missing pipes
the scale stick lets you create the correct measurements. We (or one of
our associates) can also make the reed tongues and shallots for the
various stops, from Trumpets to Bass Trombones.
Merry Christmas to all¶
