The
construction of a pipe organ of the highest quality begins
with careful planning. Beginning with initial designs for prospective
clients through the detailed layout drawings from which each
individual Schantz organ is constructed, Schantz Organ Company's
talented engineering staff oversees every detail.
When preparing a proposal for consideration, an extensive engineering
study is completed to assure the instrument can be built utilizing the
highest level of mechanical integrity including ease of access for service
and tuning. This initial review may include the completion of a line
drawing or a three dimensional proposal drawing depicting the visual
conception of the instrument's design. Once commissioned, detailed drawings
of each instrument are completed for use in the construction and installation
of the new organ.
The photos at the left illustrate the design process. A photograph of
the church with its existing instrument was utilized as the backdrop
for a computer generated rendering of our proposed new instrument. The
photo below shows the completed instrument after its installation at
St. Philip the Deacon Lutheran Church in Plymouth, Minnesota.
