I thought I'd post this just for show and tell. I did not build this. It was built by a guy that lives near me, and he had it at an antique tractor show I went to last summer. He has built and sold several of of them. Very clever. It travels at about 4.8 klh. or 3 mph American. I was at the show, invited with some other organ grinders, to play my crank organ. He brought it to over to our booth for a picture.

Nice tractor and some nice organs. I hope you do not argue about who has the biggest organ:o.
Which one is yours, looks like a good little show during the summer here I am at a few steam rallies with old steam engines and other vintage machines and vehicles I just enjoy them so much while the wife has her stall which I sell a bit of my wood turning.
:UNo, as you can see in the picture the size of the organ is directly proportional to the height of the individual. Ah, .... I'm the short guy:B:-:((
Thank you sir for this post, it'd have great to be there with you to see the little tractor and hear the organs play.....cheers, crowie
Have you got any close up photo's of your organ. Did you make it yourself as I know here in England there is a guy who goes to the rallies and sells parts for organs

This is the location of the thread on this site.
