Organ project update - Week 3 of installation

Just a quick update - the leather on the bellows has now been replaced with new material by Henry Vandelden. A big thank you to him for getting that done, so other work can continue. The bellows have been brought back to the church and put up on the organ loft. Now the work on the connecting of the chests to the bellows and the wind source can proceed apace. After that, the electrical work will go into full gear.
In the meantime, decisions have been made on the color of the pipes, the woodwork around the pipes and some of the other things needed to hold the whole thing together in the back. A lot of stuff goes on behind the scenes that all contributes to the whole and final product. We'll keep updating here as things progress.
Want to help out with anything, drop me a line or leave a comment here!
Thanks.
