Some free meltables is always the way to go. This particular piece the electricians said it would cost a small fortune to get running again, and the two that were contacted refused to even do the job , but it worked in my favour as they decided to get rid of it, and when I told them I would scrap it out and they could watch the video they very excited about that 👌🏻😁. Yes it’s a shame it wasn’t fixed, but the end of the day it can live on in this video and on the shelves . So sit back relax I hope you enjoy the video. Yes it’s quite long but there was a lot to take apart and even more to melt. But most importantly have a great weekend and Ill see all you awesome people next Friday👋😀.

HOW I MIRROR FINISH A BAR
I start with an 80 grit flap disc on my angle grinder then I use my drill with 50 mm round sanding discs . I start with 150 grit then go through the following Grits 240-400-800 Then once I get to the following Grits I use a small squirt of WD-40 1200-1500-2000-2500-3000. The WD40 helps to lubricate the discs and stops the sanding disk binding up with the metal powder . Then after that I use my buffer wheel on my bench grinder to get a perfect mirrored finish on it.

Welcome back all you beautiful People . How are you doing today? Feeling great I'm hoping. Today something a bit different a huge electric organ with surprisingly good results. The previous owner couldn't get it fixed so we're quite happy to scrap it and chucked it on marketplace just to get rid of it. They're looking forward to seeing the video and what was actually inside it so sit back relax take a load off and I hope you enjoy today's video, but most importantly Have a sensational weekend and I hope to see you all next Friday👋🏻😃

@wesleyehowell 5 месяцев назад

I've gotta admit. As a musician, and someone who plays piano and organ, it was somewhat painful to watch this being scrapped. I wish it could have been saved, but sometimes things outlive their usefulness. I'm happy to see all you were able to get out of it.

@somejoe7777 5 месяцев назад

You can see the amount of work and design in the complexity of this organ. There is a ridiculous number of analog audio processing boards, analog audio amplifiers, and several different power supply circuits. This was incredibly expensive and very hard to design in the 1970s. Unfortunately, yes, it has outlived its usefulness because today, 90% of the electronics here can be replaced by a single digital signal processing chip on one board.

@Suthyrngrl 5 месяцев назад

@Chaos89P 5 месяцев назад

My family had an organ like this back in the 90's, so I more or less understand your pain.

@nukelukas 5 месяцев назад

agree on that. Also musician here. Mostly anybody who could effectively play this marvel would not be one to fully understand what is under hood to fix it, and who understands internals (if would do it at all) it would be probably so expensive to pay for such a work that is sometimes just not worth. As looking on internals seeing so many heat sinks, probably adding to that ridiculous power consumption. If is near to working state yes - pay to save it, if is so far, probably it is time to let it go, and this is technicaly recycling so that is not throwing it away.

This reminds me of my great grandmother‘s refrigerator. She finally had to replace it in the 2000s but it was from the 50s. The appliance repairman said he didn’t even know where to get parts for it let alone if they even existed. It had a curved top and was powder pink.

@claywest9528 5 месяцев назад

Seeing a lot of negative comments, probably from music lovers and musicians. It was stated that the former owner had attempted to get the organ fixed, but this was not an option. I know that for some people this is like seeing a work of art destroyed, it looked to be a really magnificent instrument, but broke (and not practical to fix) is broke. I'm sure that for 40 plus years it provided a lot of entertainment, for a lot of people, but nothing ( especially that complex) lasts forever.

Hey man, on those circuit boards, you have multiple high value chips. For example at 1:00:29 those are Yamaha YM806's which resell for around $150USD each. Considering those were seen at a glance, I'd imagine that thing has a few other chips retro synth sound guys would pay a pretty penny(or a copper bar) for.

@jjslibrary 5 месяцев назад

Excellent catch! I was looking at those circuit boards and wondering if there was some resale value in the parts. Doesn't seem to be any for Electone parts in general, but specific vintage chips can be very hard to find for people with other instruments that use them. Very smart.

@Michael-uj2fb 4 месяца назад

I was wondering more of the precious metal scrap from the chips and boards. Would be interesting to know if anyone would care to share.

That organ looks like it would be worth a small fortune as spare parts as opposed to melting it down. I saw a lot of components that audiophiles who make their own speakers and amplifiers would love to get their hands on. The print boards would depend on how many of these organs are still out there in the wild. This one was really painful to watch ..

@shawnwright4129 5 месяцев назад

Wow, I can see why the electricians said "No way". The wiring looks more complicated than a car's wiring harness! The organ looks like it may have originally been in a church of some sort. I wonder how the speakers sound? Some of the old stuff sounds pretty good. Those capacitors and transistors were huge. Circuit boards today that would do the same thing would probably be tiny. You could have almost used the frame as a desk. That would have looked cool. I loved the video!

@rimka11 5 месяцев назад

You don't bring a device like that to an electrician. And you don't bring your car to a tinsmith for a repair. An organ should be checked by an audio electronic engineer. These speakers with all the set up as it was sounded wonderful. It's like a supercar of 80ties of audio tech.

@shawnwright4129 5 месяцев назад

@topspeed250k5 2 месяца назад

I was going to comment the same. An electrician would not have had the first clue, how could they have made any judgement on the repair cost? I really hope that someone pointed the owner in the right direction but it doesn't sound like it....if the whole thing stopped working, quite possibly it was something simple in a power supply. This might have actually been an avoidable tragedy.

@Naplesfrank154 5 месяцев назад

My dad used to have a piano organ just like that one and when it stopped working, he too was told that it would cost more to fix than it was worth. He junked it and purchased a new one for cheaper that what it would have cost to repair his old one. It was a shame because it was a beautiful piece. Unfortunately we live in a throwaway world now. I want to go back to the old days. I try to fix everything, I just feel it’s a crime to throw anything away that can be revived. Blessings to you and your family my friend from down under. ❤️

@claudevieaul1465 5 месяцев назад

Ahhh... 😀 As an organist (classically trained as well as pop) it's always a bit heart-wrenching to see one destroyed - but of course I also realise they do break down eventually. There's plenty of these to be had for free... I did, however, a full restore on my '61 Hammond B3 organ, which is completely unlike this old Yamaha Electone. It'll happily run for another few decades, and will easily outlive me - not becoming another melt for you, I'm afraid 😜👍 Happy to see Ingot's doing well!!! 🙏🙏

@scottbc31h22 5 месяцев назад

Don't get too upset about it. It's not an organ for the professional organist. Note the manuals are only 49 key, four octaves; and only 13 bass pedals. Organs like this one were horribly expensive and included a scheme to get grandma to buy the "Updated Model" every couple of years. Your Hammond, on the other hand, is well worth restoring, and, parts are still available! And the restoration would cost less And it still has good resale value (not that you would ever want to sell it). Another thing about a Hammond, If properly maintained, they can run for a hundred years. I have a 1938 BC in my studio that I play at least ounce a week. I have rebuilt around a dozen Hammonds.

@@a.azazagoth5413Nothing comes close to a real Hammond, true enough :) Yamaha did some great stuff back in the day, and they lasted for years and years... Sad that no technician was willing to fix this organ, when all that's important is market value over cost of repair / maintenance. They're far more durable than that. But like I said, there's no shortage of these home-use organs - here in the Netherlands they can even be found for free in fine working order.

@justinbarrier3459 22 дня назад

Hahaha ya ? That wouldn’t be hard at all… there not even a couple feet runs for 90% of the wiring. If you can’t find immediate damage that’s apparent. Then you can just trace down the open fault by process of elimination and doing section testing one at a time … You wanna see what’s hard for an open fault ? Try a hospital from the 1950s or data center … where you have hundreds of miles of wire in the ceiling and the ceiling has 2 feet above tiles that holds dozens of other trades components like HVAC , plumbing , fire etc so there is no room! Then per joint commissions the hospital regulations decision . You can’t pop any ceiling tile without negative pressure permits and enclosed work area. So a work permit for that area must be given to hospital and a negative pressure tent set up for that room or area.. if you can’t find the open fault in that area you just set up for.. well good luck as you do that over and over again to find it . A couple feet at a time … I’ve scene techs quit and walk off job literally cause there on site for a week trying to chase down the fault in these 1950s components and the red tape you have to go through

A lot of those parts and electronics could catch high value since most of which likely aren't produced anymore, even the transistors, MOSFET's, and IC's. Yamaha brand speakers? High quality right there for how old the organ was! Should've kept the crossovers together with them and build up a nice speaker box as Yamaha parts were absolutely amazing back in the 80's.

Ten years ago, I found an old piano in an auto repair shop. They just wanted it gone. So I went & got it. It was in horrible shape but I took it apart. They said they were scrapping it because some of the keys were sticky. When I pulled them out, I noticed they were numbered. The keys stuck to other keys for a quite simple reason: all 88 keys are just a bit different and they weren't in the proper order. Some had been warped a bit due to water damage. I reset them, sanded the wood that was rubbing from moisture warp, put new veneers on all the keys, put new pedals, stripped & sanded it down. I put wood filler in all the broken pieces of trim, stained, and made a new music stand. It took me about 500 hours to get it right & cost me about $300 including having a piano tech come tune it. I showed him photos of before & after. He said he'd have wanted $100 to haul it to the landfill, but now that it was so nice, I should insure it for $10k USD. I donated it to a church...

make sure you always look up the ceramic chips online, some early ones are worth over a grand

@harleyrdr1 5 месяцев назад

Congrats to you bro. But I feel kind of bad because I’m sure somebody could use some of the parts out of that to fix their own. Like a broken key or something but how would you ever know? 🤷‍♂️

@sparksmcgee6641 5 месяцев назад

If they could do it themselves maybe. I'd say the fact multiple service people said it's done and none offer to buy it for parts tells you they don't have much if any value. People repairing themselves aren't much of a market

@Gstv76 5 месяцев назад

Wow! This has got to be the biggest free haul of your life BigstackD!! Thanks for showing us the guts of an organ!!!!

@richardwilliams1334 3 месяца назад

I once found a smaller Eletric organ and kept it in case someone wanted it to play. I have never found anyone and seeing this one being murdered I now know what to expect. Some day when I find it among my 20 years of other unused stuff it will go the way of this one. I found this program interesting and loved it, but to hear the things you use while stripping might have been more useful to me than the tunes played in its place. That wire stripping thing is a wonderful time saving thing to start with, I often wondered how wire was stripped from its rapper which is a pain all the time. Thank you for sharing, NZ

A small tip: be careful when dismantling capacitors (black barrel-like things with white stripe on a side) from electronics, as they can still hold electric charge. You can discharge them by putting a metal screwdriver between metal contacts, otherwise you can get shocked if you accidentally touch them. Stay safe!

@lukelegg9915 5 месяцев назад

Ive never gotten shocked in my 10+ years of tearing down electronics, not sure how true this holds for smaller capacitors, now the big ones Maybe

@flamakespark 5 месяцев назад

@@lukelegg9915 small caps usually do not pose a danger, unlike ones that are used in rectifiers or other high voltage circuits. If you watched Electroboom vids, then you know what I mean

@tombrandt365 5 месяцев назад

@@flamakesparkPlenty of capacitors but did you see that FULL BRIDGE RECTIFIER!!!?

@hubbsllc 5 месяцев назад

In this instrument the ones to watch out for are the large ones in the power supply for the amplifier but those are only subject to tens of volts. Also, they drain into the circuitry they power whereas in tube amps the other tubes will have stopped conducting when their heaters cool down right after being turned off; you can have power supply caps left holding hundreds of volts for quite a while.

@giannamolinari3065 5 месяцев назад

YUP, big ones do hurt! I think Touching one of those still charged is more dangerous than touching a live main wire of your house.

@dizzious 4 месяца назад

A lot of these old organs used solid Palladium wire and contacts in the switches. I remember reading about people scrapping out Hammond organs and ending up with something like ten grams of Palladium. Seeing as Palladium is a few thousand bucks an ounce, you may want to check out those switches. I'm pretty sure it's the switches behind the keys that have the goods.

Hello from the 313 Big Stackd 😎 It’s about 3:15 am 11/10/23 in Detroit and I’m already loving this new vid. Have a blessed weekend and say hello to Ingot and Bullion for me. I’m more of a cat person but your dogs are so adorable and I look forward to seeing them every week too lol Great vid as always… 👍🏼😎

And... we saw Ingot rubbing his junk on the floor and it's on RU-vid! When I do it, the wife tells me to stop and put some pants on... go figure! Have an awesome weekend mate.

As an electronic tech (and a fan of Music) it was *_HORRENDOUS_* watching the scrap of this dead body, mostly because there was some electronics to save (the STK amplifiers were a very nice integrated amps. & I bet a good beer those speakers sound beautifully)... not mentioning the wood part could've been a very nice minidesk 😭😠🥺😖😞 Noup, didn't like this time 😪

It's your boy, hitting up New South Wales from stateside! It's bittersweet to have to put down that old beast of an organ, considering my grandparents had something similar to that, but with dual keyboards. At least in your hands, that old thing won't go straight to rubbish. 🙂
