Street Organ

[woodman928]

Well I got brave and made a youtube video of me and the Street Organ that I build. Some of you got to see it and the Southwest Missouri meet last summer but for those that didn't here you go.

It took over 300 hr to build this one and it has around 450 parts to it all made by me it uses punched paper rolls and the crank operates 2 bellows underneath to supply the air.

Hope you Enjoy
Jay

Well, since I got to hear this in person at the SW Missouri Picnic in August I must tell you that Jay has a larger version in the works. It is workable even though all the finishing touches are not done yet. But Jay played a mean version of Wabash Cannon Ball that you wouldn't believe. So, Jay...when are we going to get to hear Cannon Ball?

Barney you can find the plans by searching for John Smith Street Organs. The one I am showing in the video is a Senior 20
If you decide to build one I'm here to help (and you will need it. I love building these things)

That is totally cool, Jay! No piano playing required either, but you got to be one heck of a woodworker.
