Sailor's Horn Pipe

[@lordcrabby197]

Genuine tears from my eyes. Escape the madness of this world with the best autotune pipes given by you sir from your late adventure in life. Ty so much for that.

[@militantmarmalade]

To think, I was a three year old lad when this gorgeous rendition was uploaded.

[@robwaters8848]

God bless you. May you live a long, happy, and fulfilling life 🙏❤️

[@bobeileen1]

Yes sir, these organs are fun. It is a Castlewood. The kit comes from Australia. You can purchase on line. All wood parts are laser cut making assembly great.

[@walterromero5879]

I don't what it is about the sound of the pipes but, I just love it!

[@bobeileen1]

Thank you! Nothing replaces the sound of real organ pipes.

[@bluercheese]

Thanks for the video, Mr. Hammell!

[@fr3rdsky]

This just makes me smile :) The beauty of a mechanical music machine....

[@bobeileen1]

Really glad you enjoyed this. Mechanical music is rather amazing for what it is.

[@arneherstad2198]

Wonderful rendition of a wonderful tune.

[@Van_Der_Lay_Industries]

Hello from Australia. Sounds great!

[@bobeileen1]

I'm very glad you enjoyed this song! It was probably most popular in the 1930's and 40's time period.

[@bobeileen1]

There is a slight bind in the bellows system when they close. Using two two cranks, 90 degrees apart, keeps the music roll running evenely.

[@bobeileen1]

Glad you enjoyed the song!! The kit is from Castlewood Pipe Organs in Australia. Check GOOGLE for Website. All parts are laser cut and fit together very well.

[@yonkel]

Bob, I admired the finish you gave your Castlewood organ so much that when I built mine, ( number 165 ) I gave it a somewhat similar finish. The construction and finishing process was a lot of work but I enjoyed every bit of it. Your other instruments are all wonderful as well. Really beautiful work.

[@wilesco4]

Very good. It's great to see another Castlewood organ playing so well. I own number 130, whick took five months to build. I hope you post some more videos.

[@philipgrund967]

Thank you! This is wonderful! Made me smile today I'm glad to see Castlewood Pipe Organs is still shipping the kit for these.

[@brycevo]

This is a really cool instrument. And the song is a classic

[@bobeileen1]

Thanks. I recall hearing this tune all my life, here and there.

[@ghillepig2]

Such a nice song and what a beautiful instrument, I can tell I really want to waste my money on it already, I know I'll only use it a few times but I'll love it

[@bobeileen1]

Really glad you enjoyed this!! The organ uses punched music rolls much like a player piano. Pre-punched rolls are available Online. Many songs are available.

[@virginiaorganbuilder]

Best ever! This is what these organs are all about- pure joy!

[@lakeofmarch1377]

Excellent, thanks. This reminds us 1930s cartoons developed straight out of fairground attractions from the period..

[@bobeileen1]

I'm glad you enjoyed the street organ. Its great to know of others with like interests. Your posted videos are fantastic: lute, Mole In The Ground, incredible astronomical device dating to B.C. and cartoon from 1933. Thanks very much. bobh (John 3:16)

[@bobeileen1]

Glad you enjoyed this. The organ was assembled from the Castlewood organ kit, Australia. All parts are laser cut and it goes together nicely. Thanks! bobh

[@bobeileen1]

I appreciate your grand comment! Sailor's Hornpipe is a great old song. Totally cool.

[@bobeileen1]

Hi John. Good to hear from you again. The Castlewood was constructed from the kit. It was not modified in any way. I see you are now 69. I turned 69 Nov 15th. I'm glad to report construction on your Universal Organ beginning July 7th. I spent three evenings in backyard looking at the plans, drawings and watching the video. Almost decided it was beyond my ability but decided to just make the D# bass pipe and keep on reading. Now I'm well into it! Thanks for the fantastic project! Bob

[@kafiyo7928]

That was the best sound I've heard in ages!

[@rfletch62]

Fascinating! Great sound! Thanks for uploading this.

[@fnersch]

Thanks so much for sharing the wonders of your workshop. I build these things myself so enjoy seeing what others do too.

[@bobeileen1]

Glad you liked that one!! I listened to the Vibraband Man and was totally amazed. Thanks.

[@bobeileen1]

There is a slight resistance in the crank cycle each time the bellows close. Since the two crank option was available I decided to use it. The cranks are set 90 degrees apart. This helps maintain a consistant turning speed. Some years ago I machined a two cylinder marine steam engine with cranks set in this way. Maybe that's where this idea came from!

[@thecrankjonkie2391]

Two cranks? 😍😍. Love that. What a great idea to keep the speed well. ! Great sounding organ! The crank JOnkie loves this one!

[@bobeileen1]

Very happy you enjoyed this. Yes 2 cranks help with speed

[@toonman361]

Wonderful sound. Good to know these are out there.

[@bobeileen1]

Really glad you like the finish on #139! I'm pleased you were able to get some ideas for finishing #165. Your comments are truly appreciated. These 20 note organs are great. BobH

[@111oldie]

Just great, to keep all those old handmade music instruments showing to the youngters of today that there are so many amazing things out of those iPhne!

[@bobeileen1]

Happy you enjoyed this! Busker organs are fun.

[@bobeileen1]

Thanks, Leandra!!! Super glad you love it. I'd like to make a larger one sometime. This music is lots of fun. BobH

[@bobeileen1]

Thanks Charlie! It makes a great construction project. All wood parts are laser cut.

[@SuperMadpom]

Wow! who knew you could by such a fabulous thing to build in kit form. Nice tone too.

[@bobeileen1]

Castlewood Organs makes the kit for construction. The 20 note Paper rolls are supplied by Melvin Wright in England. There may be another supplier in Texas. Can't recall name.

[@bobeileen1]

Very nice hearing from you in this manner. Thanks very much.

[@bobeileen1]

Glad you enjoyed the music. That's a great old song.

[@bobeileen1]

No but it would be fun to have one. This machine is a 20 pipe street organ or busker organ. It plays punched rolls like a player piano. Bob

[@ghillepig2]

Wow this is amazing, I hadn't known it existed prior to watching this, thank you 👍

[@rapturedreamvision7205]

Thank you Robert, I really enjoyed this. It makes me feel happy and reminds me of the ocean. :)

[@bobeileen1]

I agree completely. Music works amazing things for us. When we arrive Home, the real music will fill our souls!!!! Jesus is coming.

[@rapturedreamvision7205]

I'll see you up there in Heaven my brother in Christ. I have had 3 dreams of the Rapture and Tribulation.

[@bobeileen1]

Yes, we have much to look forward to. The Rapture could happen any day! The Lord has blessed you with visions of things to come.

[@bobeileen1]

Glad you liked that song! The vibraband man is really great. Thanks.

[@beach324]

Bob: Actually I was inquiring about the organ you built from the Popular Mechanics December 1982 plans. I have built the Castlewood and enjoyed that project very much.

[@olivergwilson]

Brilliant work matey.

[@theusher2893]

Yarr, he'll be dancin' for hours!

[@bobeileen1]

Thanks very much. This organ was constructed from a kit.

[@ItsShepsky]

this brings me untold joy...

[@lilsprugga]

Lovely!

[@bobeileen1]

Very glad you enjoyed this. Organ pipes create the purist form of music it seems to me. bobh

[@bobeileen1]

This organ was constructed from a kit purchased from Castlewood Organs in Australia.

[@bobeileen1]

You got it!! This is the original Mickey Mouse music making machine but only in my dreams. Your Site Page is beautiful with the pan flute wall paper.

[@bobeileen1]

This organ is not for sale. It was constructed from a Castlewood Pipe Organ kit. You can find there Website online. It is a great project.

[@bobeileen1]

Glad you enjoyed this. It's a great old song! bobh

[@drdos4]

Beautiful machine and beautiful tune.

[@bobeileen1]

It's a great old song! Thanks. bobh(John 3:16)

[@bobeileen1]

@circusboy90210 Since this organ is constructed from a kit all the wood parts are laser cut. No power tools needed.

[@bobeileen1]

Thanks a lot. This is a favorite old song.

[@charliemor3]

great organ Rob!

[@ArnoldVeeman]

so beautiful... I look for one to do live performances with on stages where I sing, don't know where to start...

[@LNERMallard]

This is pretty interesting. I like the happy tone it has.

[@Larsky1010]

Beautiful piece of work!

[@Timetonut]

Did you have to program the whole piece or did that come with it?! That is simply wonderful, and well tuned.

[@bobeileen1]

Yes, the Castlewood organ kit was designed using the John Smith 20 note roll.

[@frogstamper]

Thanks for posting, most enjoyable.

[@bobeileen1]

Glad you enjoyed it. Thanks

[@bobeileen1]

Thanks. This a a great old song.

[@bobeileen1]

The thought never occured to me. Now that you have mentioned it, I see the face!

[@stuartreynolds5824]

This is realy good.welldone

[@bobeileen1]

@beach324 Hello, This Castlewood organ is constructed from a kit. All wood is laser cut and it goes together very well. The kit comes from Australia. You can order one by going to the Castlewood Website. bobh

[@LNERMallard]

What a nice, merry sound!

[@bobeileen1]

Thanks very much. A great old song.

[@confusingTM]

delightful thank you for sharing this :>

[@AAErikCO]

Really cool! But why are there two hand cranks??

[@megansspark]

beautiful sound, and intricate design

[@bobeileen1]

Glad you liked it. This is a great old song.

[@bobeileen1]

You should be able to contact Popular Mechanics and order a copy of December 1982 edition. It contains a complete artical for building the two octave calliope and lists materials needed. bobh

[@Mossman1223]

this made me crack up great job

[@bobeileen1]

Glad you like this. It's a great old song.

[@RachelDavis705]

This is amazing

[@bobeileen1]

This is a great old song. Thanks alot!!

[@SSdecline]

i Enjoyed this video. Every last one second of it. Thank you for gaving me the opportunity to listen to a sailor's horn pipe. I am curios about one thing tho: In what age it was commonly played?

[@Composer1992]

It sounds so cute!!

[@bobeileen1]

Thanks! Great old song.

[@Composer1992]

Yeah, absolutely! I was just having a look through some Sailor's Hornpipe videos because I'm arranging it for Sheet Music Boss :)

[@Borthax]

Holy shit, andrew fucking wrangle himself. His Biritishness realy accents the song. You two should use the organ and piano for a Duet of epicness.

[@GrandmasterBeef]

this is excellent, thanks for sharing

[@bobeileen1]

Yes! It's a great old song.

[@Sora657]

A time back I had a bamboo pan flute that was my grandad's I think it broke somehow I wish I had one again. Basically no different than that instrument in the video.

[@catharinas.miller1965]

Que geaça! Super awesome 👌

[@bobeileen1]

@Mossman1223 happy you like it

[@olivergwilson]

This video had made my day.

[@bobeileen1]

@bkisme I'm glad you approve of this project! It was fun to assemble.

[@scasey1960]

One handle for the roll while the other is for the air?

[@Rythymoxide2020]

Where do get paper roll from is it from the castle organ website or other source? Cool Vid. Long live old style boom boxes!!!

[@bobeileen1]

Yes, a punched paper roll. Air passes through the openings to play the pipes in correct sequence.

[@Sora657]

Beautiful .....

[@DJprimeceptor]

I instantly smiled!

[@mordsgaudimachen]

Does anyone know where I gan get plans for one of these? or buy one?

[@beach324]

Bob: Would you share the plans ? I would like to build one.

[@gemmadan]

Hi Bob. Is this a standard Castlewood or have you enlarged it ? I do really like all your videos keep them coming John

[@bobeileen1]

@denimvest Howdy Jordan, Nice Bible name. Are those some lyrics to Sailer's Hornpipe? You are 20 years older than me. Hope I make it to 91 and more. Take care. bobh

[@77Fortran]

Fantastic! :)

[@bobeileen1]

Thanks! Glad you enjoyed this.

[@circusboy90210]

ok so what basic hand tools do you need for this again?? I"m sure they dont even have to be power tools do they??

[@CodyLocal94]

I want to learn how to play that instrument!

[@bobeileen1]

This make me very happy indeed.
