Dusty pipe

2019-07-29T19:04:28.085Z

A tribute to a man with hughe fingers who played 16 gauge strings for many hours at a time, just because they sound better..

Band practise again, nobody showed but me an the one man band..

Heading down the back turnpike, signposts are pointing west
Fell into the lonely dustpipe, hope my pick-up can stand the test
But I'm doing all right now
Rolling down the dustpipe, na-na-na-na nana-na-nana-na

Rolling down the dustpipe now, got a ten dollar bill in my jeans
Because there ain't no room for a kosher cowboy in a town like new orleans
But I'm doing all right now
Rolling down the dustpipe, na-na-na-na nana-na-nana-na

Guess I didn't make it in the city, but that's just the way that it goes
'Cause there's a lotta lunatics, crazy ghostmen, baby, don't like the shape of my nose
But I'm doing all right now
Rolling down the dustpipe, na-na-na-na nana-na-nana-na

Rolling down the dustpipe now, got a ten dollar bill in my jeans
Because there ain't no room for a kosher cowboy in a town like new orleans
But I'm doing all right now
Rolling down the dustpipe, na-na-na-na nana-na-nana-na

Portative DIY pipe organ test

The valves work well. There is one place where a valve affects another valve when pressed.

The keys works fine.

The windshield also works fine and it is sufficiently airtight to the system works.

The bellows works, but they are too noisy. Perhaps oilcloth should be used instead of tarpaulin.

The pitch of a pipe is not stable and tends to be changed from time to time, or even disappear.

It has been harder to get a good tone for the short pipes than the longer ones.

When making the organ pipes, it is not optimal to use plastic tubes. Small selection of tubes with fixed diameter.

It is not optimal to use plastic tubes to create the organ pipes, as it is bonded to diameters which are determined by the selection of tubes which can be bought. I originally chose to make the pipes of plastic tubes because it was relatively easy to create a functioning flue pipe.

The pipes should be made of a material such as paper, cardboard or paper mache where you better can determine the design of the pipe. The languid in the pipe may be made of clay.
