The Leslie
This page is not considered ready for primetime by any means. At the moment, it's exists as a place to hold links and snippets of data as we come across it. When it's finished, the hope would be to have a good resource on how to employ the Leslies that often end up liberated from home organs and sold on eBay.
History
- Unearthing the Mysteries of the Leslie Cabinet A very good place to start if you're just learning about these critters.
- The Hammond Leslie FAQ From the same sight as the link above, these pages haven't been updated since 2002. Fortunately the technology hasn't changed much since the 1970's.
- The Hammond Wiki This Wiki has a nice section on Leslie's.
DIY Links
- NoFi This open directory is gives some great insight to boxing up an open Leslie. As of Spring 2006, this project is still underway.
- Mark Hammer This pdf file containing a couple of nice close-up shots of Mark's 8" Leslie.
- Dean Hazelwanter This 1.5meg zip file is hosted on Mark Hammer's site. It contains several photos of Dean's disassembled machine.
