You need to salvage the extra key contacts and bussbars from a doner
spinet.
Bussbars are long gold wires that run the length of the manuals, basicly
the key contacts make contact with the bussbars, there is one Bussbar for
each drawbar.
Some spinets dont have 9 full length bussbars on the top manual, I know the
M-100 does but I can't remember if the L-100 does.{I'll check and get back
to you on this).

Subject: [hammond_zone] foldback
While I was looking through some old mails, I saw something about
foldback. I know what it is. I also know my l122 don't have it. On the
capitan folback site was a link to a folback site so i checked it out. After
reading some instructions, I thought it could usefull to take a look in my
own hammond. It's all opened up now and i can see now how the contacts are
made. But i also can see that getting more to the right of the organ, the
number of contacts per key is going less.
Now is my question what will i need excactly to add foldback to my l122?
This is what I could figure out:
1. 50 contacts per manual, but how do I get these?
2. Wires to connect the notes to the proper contacts. I noticed that the
wires that connect the notes to the connects are very thin. Are these
special wires?
And what are bussbars?
I know some of you know excactly what I'm talking about. So let it roll!!!
