2009-10-18 - Updated through on-line information from Edward Odell. -- We have completely restored the winding system, including a new blower and total overhaul of the double-rise reservoir. Though we have done our share of these in the past, this is the largest reservoir of this type (10' x 12') we have ever encountered. We also rebuilt the Choir pneumatic stop action assembly and are proceeding with restoration tasks as time and funds permit, but this is a significant step as the organ has been silent for over 15 years. We're planning to continue restoration of the Choir division. There are pipe damages and some missing from the Choir and Swell, but it is relatively minor. -Database Manager
