I can't imagine why anyone would discourage someone who at least tries to save an old musical instrument. When the church I attend was refurbished the superb organ ended up in a skip, not even stripped for parts. I was close to tears. When I saw how this instrument had been rescued before (and what an amazing story that would have been, and to hear it played in that house!) and now that Sam is rescuing it again is just wonderfully inspiring. It may be utterly crazily optimistic but more power to your elbow! Keep the crazy flag flying!

[@thebiggerbyte5991]

Those criticising should remember that an organ like this isn't really an instrument anyway, is a collection of separate instruments, parts and systems brought together and played from one place. Sure, it won't be a church organ anymore, but it will live on and give joy to people, albeit in a different way. If not for you, it would have all ended up in recycling and landfill. I am very impressed with how quickly you have these parts producing music again. Well done!

Part of me was thinking _"Don't do that."_ But then another part of me was like _"Just rip out all the antiquated electronics and replace them with MIDI-controlled Arduino."_ Maybe that's not the industry standard way to wire an organ. But it's the way to do it with a maker ethos and modern technology.
