Organs in danger / How to remove an organ??
March 05, 2012, 01:01:48 PM
Hi
Looking for some advice from the very knowledgeable on this forum.
I have a project which may soon involve removal, packing and shipping of a pipe organ from a Welsh Chapel.
How feasible is it to attempt such a removal myself, with an assistant?
Would I be better advised to enlist the help of proffessionals?
I have had a peek and the the task does look complicated but not overly daunting, am I likely to damage something which will cost a fortune to have repaired later?
Any advice will be both appreciated and seriously listened to.
Regards
Mel
