Most interesting. Looking forward to any follow-up on the finished organ after it's installed in its new home. Thanks, Johnathan and Brent.

Fascinating! It's a brave move opening up an organ build & repair shop in this day and age but Johnathan certainly looks to have the knowledge and drive to make a success of it. Those Skinner offset chest pneumatics are intriguing - it was probably cheaper back then to do it that way, and certainly reliable. Glad they're being retained - so much historic stuff was lost in the last half of the 1900's by well-meaning "replace not restore" builders and it's important to keep what's left. As always, an excellent video and thank you for posting.

Very impressive. Jonathan is to be commended!

Nice job good to see Mr.Skinner preserved

Toilet wax rings are wonderful. I use them for lubricating wood screws.

Thanks Jonathan! So very astute and handsome as always!

What a beautiful shop!

What a great video! Thank you so much!

That was great, as a Plumber i use the wax all the time, very true always keeps it's shape..

@21:35 we use the toilet bowl wax ring too, but it's really sticky and it can grab larger stoppers almost too well. The wax is actually called "Slack wax" it's a by-product of crude oil production, it comes in about 10 or so different grades each with it's own melting point set by the ratio of wax to oil it's made from. I was unable to determine what specific formula the toilet bowl wax is, and after looking to see if they had maybe a 10 pound block of it available, it's apparently only sold in 55 gallon drums, and of course the rather expensive toilet bowl rings with the plastic tray and cardboard that gets thrown away after providing a very small amount of ring. Johnathan was a grreat narrator for the whole video, great job!

At 8:01 through 8:08 and exactly 8:24, the 4-ft principal sounds pretty nice and it does sound like it's in tune!

Loved this! Thank you!

Great video!!

Great video ! I'm a particular fan of the Czelusniak shaper. Keep up the great work!

I've never seen a string as a reference rank before.

Wow, 30 years ago I was roundly criticized and ridiculed by the old timers for using toilet wax rings to lubricate and seal pipe stoppers. My how times have changed…

They have restored theatre organs but that isn’t a tibia.

Ist ja dann des Problem mit der Intonation die Gänge der Orgel sind sehr schmal des man die Pfeifen nicht zertreten tut.Ich war schon mal drinne in einer großen Kirchen Orgel garnicht einfach da durch zu laufen wegen de Pfeifen war.Ja bin großer Fan von den Kirchenorgeln ist auch die Königin der Instrumente.Bin mit Kirchen und Klassik Liedern an der Kirchen Orgel nicht konfrontiert worden.Aber habe schon gesehen ja des sehr viel Kirchen Organisten u Organistinen in den Kirchen alles spielen an Popmusik Rockmusik Schlager Contry und Volksmusik spielen ob in der Katholischen Kirche oder Evengelisch ist ja egal war.Maaan det hört sich so was von genial an und suuuuper Ich spiele auch an einer Kirchen Orgel auch solche Musik die Akustik im Kirchenschiff einfach sowas von toll ja da könne Ich immer zu schwermen was manche Organisten und nin spielen ja einfach suuper mehr kann Ich da zu nichts sagen weil Ich es such so mache mit Solche Songs zu spielen .Muss immer wieder sagen ja des hört sich so was von schön an ja.Danke die Organistin die sowas machen an der Kirchenorgel.❤😊So nun habt Ihr mein Kommentar über diese Situation gegeben.Danke schön Lg Monika aus Gemany Deutschland Heimat aus Dessau.Vielen Dank.Habe auch ein Musik Kanal wo Ich auch an der Kirchen Orgel Schlager usw spielen tue.Viel Spaß beim reinschsuen ❤😊

@monikawojdak3037, I think you meant to say church organs are the king of instruments.
