Thread Name: Organ grinders.
Subject: RE: Organ grinders.
Man ... talk about coincidence! Just this last Sunday, I gave a VERY OLDE organ grinder away. The only problem was that it was in pieces and resting in four different boxes. I would guess there were at least 500 parts, from pipes to wooden levers, a leather bellows, wires springs and valves. (my first car wasn't this complicated) The man I gave it to knows how to reassemble it. It has 77 pipes, with only three missing. I figure it will take him a year to assemble it, but if anyone can. he will do it. And I also plugged in "organ grinder" on goggle and got a lot of information. But, if I come up with a monkey, I'll let you know. And, OH, by the way, the term "Organ Grinder" is not a new dance! CHEERS, Bob(deckman)Nelson
