Weeks 4-6 - Project update

Time for a brief update on this project. Things have not been moving too fast on this lately - the emphasis has been on getting the rest of the building and outside ready as much as possible, so that's understandable.
Some things have been done though - speaker cloth has been ordered for the areas between the woodwork and behind the facade pipe; wood and stain have been picked for the facade and actually the wood has already been stained too. The mechanical pieces needed to hold the facade pipes in place have been manufactured (thanks Dan Flokstra) and put in place. Some other pieces have been made as well. On Thursday, Aubrey and a helper will work on putting more of this together. Lighting has also been discussed to see what needs to go where.
Pieces have been cut for another wind channel to be put up - all preparatory work to enable Mindert and company to work on the wind part of the project.
Every piece is important as the puzzle is put together to make a pleasing whole eventually. Can't wait to experience the first sounds coming out of the organ!
