'Allo - Have any current builders, tracker or otherwise, taken
to reviving the stop knob known as the Pedal Check?
 
Always seemed to me to be a very obvious and useful device to
avoid damage as well as untoward noises.
 
I gather that the Roosevelt on Puget Island visited by the OHS
now has the blower switch on the pedal check knob, a clever
if not completely versatile idea.

who was once chewed out by a famous Boston organist for daring
to stand on the _frame_ of a Casavant pedalboard, which could
have supported even the famous Boston organist.
