Dear Gren,
Congratulations for having a real tone wheel Hammond.
I was interested in your plans to recuperate your split alteration back to a normal
cabinet.
May I suggest you a tip?
Visit www.ebay.com a auction-biding site where you could find wonderful opportunities,
some even located in the UK.
Look for Hammond Organs and you might be even able to buy a cabinet or a complete organ
for a reasonable price...and keep a number of precious spare parts.
Good luck,

Over 30 years ago I bought my M101, it was 3 years old then and during the
70's I had it split by Mike Phillips after I saw the Pedlars and realised
h> ow it could be done. I sadly covered my 'M' with black vinyl as I was
doing> gigs with it at the time and the polished surface was starting to look
ext> remely scratched.
It is still working along with my 145 leslie but has developed a hum due
to> the capacitors starting to fail but many of the valves (tubes) are still
o> riginal and it still sounds great. I have an original Hammond service
manua> l which has helped me keep this beautiful mill working.
I am now trying to get the cabinet back to its original state but what I
ne> ed is an M cabinet without the guts. My M is made from really thick
plywood> not the chipboard cabinet that many of UK made Hammond 'M's had.
