MMD Archives December 1995 1995.12.01 03 Prev  Next Organette Cobs By Robert Linnstaedt I have a project in mind.  I own two 20-note organettes and have found few cobs available a) at reasonable prices, b) in good condition, c) with "happy" musical selections.  Since these are a rather low-tech creation, I have considered making my own cobs.  ** Does anyone out there know if any of the original cob-making     machinery is extant?  ** Are you aware of anyone who is currently making new cobs?  ** Has anyone had experience in this endeavor? (Information about your     failures is as helpful as about your successes). Tell me what you know.  I thank you for any input. (Message sent Fri 1 Dec 1995, 16:36:18 GMT, from time zone GMT-0500.) Key Words in Subject:  Cobs, Organette
