The owner has ordered two sets of tapes. On one set will be the standard Mark II Strings, 8 choir, mixed brass and, I think, St. John's Wood organ. On the second set, I think he will opt for some less well known voices. Incidentally, I built that wooden frame to allow me to work standing up. I can lace frames, work on it, azimuth heads, set keys or test different components without having to stoop and peer into the cabinet. I can even play them while they are out of their cabinets. It also saves bench room and allows me to roll them from place to place in the shop

Nice job, Frank!  What voices will be on the initial tape frame?
