Anatomy of a WurliTzer Theatre Pipe Organ

CONSOLE - HORSESHOE

This is looking at the underside of the horseshoe.

The cable to the stoptabs runs in a channel in the underside of the horseshoe.

When adding two tabs at each end of the stop rail the cable channel needed to be extended. This was reasonably straight forward using a router against a guide cut to the curve of the horseshoe. The extended channel is in the center of the picture.

To the right of the channel extension is the sloping section of the channel where the cable runs out to the bottom of the assembly. Naturally this was right where the extra preset pneumatics needed to go.
