Excerpt from Organ Building for Amateurs: A Practical Guide for Home-Workers, Containing Specifications, Designs, and Full Instructions for Making Every Portion of the Instrument The method of making pipes of paper, which is an invention of my own, will, I trust, prove a boon to amateurs, especially those of limited means, as by making pipes of this material the most expensive item in the cost of the instrument is reduced to a comparatively nominal sum. I do not think I could adduce better testimony of their efficiency than the fact that a practical organ-builder, who is quite un known to me, has thought it worth his while to take up the manufacture of these pipes, and to enlarge his workshops for the purpose. I would add that the care, patience, and perseverance devoted to building even a small organ at home must necessarily afford most valuable training to young men, and the moral value of the instrument itself in a home where children are growing up cannot, I think, be over-estimated.
