I am an ex-M.O.D. trained mechanical engineer. I have been collecting and restoring/repairing mechanical musical instruments for the past 15 years. I am also a designer and builder of replica early keyboard instruments. For many years, I have also carried out repair and restoration for fellow collectors and have recently set up a website to promote my services. I am based just west of Chichester, West Sussex, trading as Chidham Instruments.
