Incised detail on one of the façade posts.
The pre-restoration condition of the bellows was quite poor.
During the previous releathering, peculiar rope hinges were installed in a way that damaged the ribs. As a result, all new ribs had to be made.
Pre-restoration condition of the stop jambs, with one of the square rails for the mechanical key action behind.
Ben cleans the metal squares before installing new leather grommets.
Testing one of the Pedal Bourdon windchests.
The upper right corner of this part of the console lid had been completely split away, but the repair is so seamless it can't be seen.
The lower half of the case side panel on the right had been cut away to allow the duct from the blower to pass into the organ case. We reconstructed it like the unaltered original panel from the other side of the case.
