Photos of a "Bob Essex MIDster PUNCH" Music roll Punch Machine built and sent in by Derek, Australia. Thanks for sending your photos to the AOBG for all our members to see. Looks like a very impressive build.
G/day to you all from Aus. If anyone would like to make a "MIDSTER PUNCH" one of our a.m.o.s (Australian Mechanical Organ Society) members, Reuben Grieger has drawn a VERY detailed set of plans (over 100 pages) for you to make this punch,these are on a CD and you can contact reuben via email rgrieger@aapt.net.au if you are interested and do make contact be patient as he does not look at his email very often. You will also need to purchase the booklet "A COMPUTER CONTROLLED MUSIC ROLL PUNCH MACHINE" which comes with version 5.0 software from BOB ESSEX, bobessex@aol.com
That looks a superb bit of kit Derek, congratulations! With your permission I shall copy these photographs for my archives. Best wishes to you and to all fellow "punchies" worldwide. Bob
G/day to all a.o.builders,i have sent a short 20min. vidio of this machine in operation to my brother Dennis and he has a copy on DVD which he will take to the a.o.b weekend at Ramsgate,if anyone is interested let him or me know and perhaps he could organize a session for all to watch it. Kind Regards to All, Derek (Australia)
