Seek Blower For Voicing Organ Pipes
By Paul Sysum

-- non-subscriber, please reply to sender and MMD --

Can anyone help?  I am currently building a John Smith Universal Organ.
I want to voice each pipe prior to assembly on to the wind chest for
final voicing.  My problem: no blower.

My question: Does anyone know if I could use the blower from a Bontempi
Chord Organ?  I can pick one up from the local car boot sale for a few
pounds and then remove the blower.  Has any one else tried this, or any
thoughts?

Many Thanks. Paul Sysum, Gloucester, England.
