Updated by Sean Haley, who has heard or played the organ: The organ is often in a state of revision and alteration by Mr. Dodrill. A Welte wooden 16' Trombone with several pipes mounted horizontally on the ceiling of the hallway behind the instrument is one of the more recent changes. It goes in to an 8' Trumpet playable on the Great. A very recent and more exotic addition is a Glass Flute created by Mr. Dodrill, of approximately 4 octaves located in the back of the sanctuary in front of the Harp. It is, in crude terms, a beer bottle organ constructed of various sized bottles and small vials with air stream nozzles to play them.
Identified through online information from James R. Stettner. -- This was the addition of an independent (used) III Mixture 2' to the Great to replace the III Mixture derived from the 2' Fifteenth and 2-2/3' Twelfth. A used chest was rebuilt and a new channeled toeboard cap installed. The stop was tonally regulated by Clint Meadway and Jim Stettner. In August 2006, Clint Meadway installed a used capped metal Bourdon from the 1950s Balcom and Vaughan organ previously at Our Saviour's Lutheran in Spokane, Washington. Regulation was again by Clint Meadway and Jim Stettner. It was playable at 8' & 4' on the Great and replaced the borrowed Swell 8'/4' Bourdon stops. This made the organ 53 registers, 25 ranks, still 23 speaking stops, and 1,557 pipes.
