Seek Mechanical Valves for Hand-Cranked Organ
By yankvlk@aikenelectric.net

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

I am in the process of building a 9-note monkey organ with about
3 pounds of air.  It will be hand cranked and I can't find any
kind of a mechanical valve I can use.  If I can make this work,
and I already have finished making all the parts except for the
valves, I will then make Dave Kerr's 43-note calliope.

Your name was given to me by a player piano repair person.
Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks, Ron
