A commitment is made!
Kevin Knox, who builds incredible scale-model
railways and I met today. He has agreed to do the work.
Now I need to sell a kit or two.
It's time to start considering the joys of learning an interesting instrument, Gentle Readers.
Please comment and give me your ideas on the best way to orchestrate kit building and buying.
Ken.

I hope to supply a nearly complete kit to make the second, larger keyboard you can see in the pictures, not the smaller, wearable one, from a M-Audio 88es, 61es, or possibly the 49 key variant.
To wit:
- 88 /66/49 key-bases to replace the standard keys
- 120 / 100 / 70-odd clear acrylic key caps, for either Janko [square] or jammer layout (The colour comes from paint on the underside.).
- Sides for the new case, like the black ones you can see
- the bottom of the case - I make or may not pre-drill the keyboard assembly mounting holes.
2 top panels for the new case
- an extension cable to link the 2 halves of the keyboard assembly.
We (as a group) will have to figure out how the make the thumb-controls. I have not got that far yet.
You will have to supply the hacksaw, screwdrivers, paint and M-Audio keyboard, BTW, I have struck a deal for a discount from M-Audio.
