Castlewood Pipe Organs & Busker Organ Kits
By Tom Newsome

Hello from Australia.  I thought that I might introduce myself and
the Castlewood.

I am Tom Newsome from Northam in Western Australia.  Northam is a small
town about 60 miles east of Perth and was the launch site of Steve
Fossett's latest attempt to circumnavigate the world in Solo Spirit.

It is also the home of Castlewood Pipe Organs.  The Castlewood Busker
Organ plays 20-note rolls of the John Smith standard.  Since I mentioned
it briefly in June, there was an immediate response by MMD subscribers
and we have supplied a number of kits.  We now have our own laser cutter,
so we have total control of the kit production.  Ed Gaida is now
perforating Melvyn Wright's arrangements so there is a huge repertoire
for this organ.

A web site has started on Yahoo Groups, (which is not run by Castlewood)
and is a forum for constructors of this kit.  It has a very large
gallery of construction pictures, etc., taken by constructors with lots
of hints and tips and answers to questions.

You can find details, of course, at http://www.castlewoodorgans.com/
and I would be pleased to answer any of your questions.

Kindest regards

Tom Newsome
