Hi Michael. I really enjoy watching your videos ! You are doing a great job. I also have a Wurlitzer 105. I will be restoring the vacuum pump. Your video is very timely and helpful. I would like to take you up on your offer of the spring steel giveaway. Can I send you my address for shipping? Do you have a preferred email? Thanks. Mike Van Deventer.
@@Wurlitzer104mikeV Hello Mike. Thanks for your kind words. Of course I can send you some spring steel. Drop me a line at mjfotheringham@hotmail.com and we'll exchange details. Cheers, and thanks again. Michael
It's interesting to see how Wurlitzer practice varied from European practices. We tend to cover the outer pump boards and sometimes the working board with a layer of Organ book card, the thought being it will still hold pressure if the wood developed a split. Have a good trip, I hope you can find some organs. If you get a chance try to get to Museum Speelklock in Utrecht or the Draaiorgal museum in Harlem. Both are excellent. I.visited both last month on the Mechanical Organ Owners Association tour
Thanks for your comment. I have always wondered why paper is glued on the inside of the boards. Your explanation makes perfect sense. Thanks for watching :)
