How does the swell pedal work on a Pipe Organ?
Good question. In technical terms it is called an "expression pedal" as in strictest terms the swell pedal controls only the swell division. The same principal applies to all divisions under expression.
Simply put, depressing the expression pedal forward increases the volume. This is called opening the expression pedal. The opposite decreases the volume.
This is accomplished by enclosing the pipes in the division in question in some sort of enclosure and fitting an opening with a set of shades or "shutters." The shades take the form of large Venetian blinds. they are usually made of wood but some builders have used metal and other materials have been used, such as glass on rare occasions.
The enclosure may take the form of a wooden box or a separate room, called an "organ chamber."
The shades may be connected to the shades by direct mechanical linkage or electrically with a motor being used to move the shades.
On a pipe organ the use of the shades is quite different than an electric or electronic organ, such as a Hammond. The expression pedals should not be "pumped" for not only will they will not be able to respond adequately but it will put undue stress and wear on the mechanisms.
Another type of expression pedal also exists. It appears identical to swell type pedals but does not function in the same manner. This is the Crescendo, or Register Crescendo. It works by bringing stops on and off progressively. It is for special effects and should not be used as a means of registration.

How to make a mini pipe organ out of straws and popsicle sticks?
Take the straws and cut them to lengths that differ in centimetres. For instance, the first pipe should be 5cm long, the next 6cm and so on. Then construct the bellows with the scrotum of a pig. Attach the bellows to the pipes by means of some tubing, possibly rubber or even blood vessels. After that, carve the keys out of human bones and set them into a board configuration. Finally, attach the keys to the pipes with sinew, and perhaps a small amount of semen.

Did Bach play the pipe organ if so how old was he when he started?
The pipe organ was the only organ of J.S. Bach's (1685 -1750) time. There were of course no electronic organs and the reed organ, or harmonium, was still almost a hundred years off. He was very well know as an organist. More so as an organist than a composer. He traveled extensively both giving recitals and acting as an organ consultant. It is impossible to say just exactly when he pushed his first organ key. However it is said that his uncle Johann Christoph Bach (1645 1693) gave him his first organ lessons. The Bach family name was synonymous with musician. Therefore it is reasonable to assume that J.S. started musical training as soon as he was physically able to manipulate a keyboard. As an offhand guess I would say age 4 or 5 for basic keyboard training (harpsichord, clavichord) and age 8 or 9 for the organ or as soon as he could reach the pedal keyboard with his feet. However if you look at the death date of J.C. Bach one could take it that he started earlier as J. C. was dead by the time J.S. was 7. Suffice to say he started very early.
