Tom, I am finding that making it play and playing music are two different things. It is requiring a lot of tweaking and taking more time than I have to devote to it right now.
Well Chuck....I found out how easy it is to have the tubing crossed up. There is simply NO room inside to move your hand when fitting the tubes to the tracker bar. I had 16 pipes connected tonight but found there was no way to reach the other 4 the way I was doing it.....so....two steps back (again). I WAS SO CLOSE. I was not doing it in the order that John shows in the DVD and I found out the hard way that you really have to have the bass pipes fully mounted, then the inside pipes THEN the outside pipes or else you simply cannot reach the tracker bar holes. So I took the 16 pipe hoses back off and will have to get the bass pipes in first. I was hoping to "make some noise" tonight by having the pipes hooked up just to "see if it plays" but I will have to wait another night or two. I also found a few stoppers that I needed to remake to fit tighter so I guess in the long run it is best to take the time and get things right.
