On a related note, does anybody know of any good DIY piano projects? I google around from time to time and I haven't been able to find anything yet. Sounds like a hard project to get right. I found this on github [1], seems like he did not go far. Quote:
"Given that 3D printing has taken care of the lots-of-precise-parts requirement, there is now the possibility to explore different designs both for easy printing and assembly while also experimenting with the key feel."
I kinda agree... I remember there was a time when making a computer keyboard seem prohibitively expensive and difficult, but these days is a normal thing. It doesn't have to be 88 keys for a start :-)
EDIT:
Just found a nice project! [2] Definitely sounds like a good idea to get some existing keyboard with about the target form factor and just mess around with the keys! I was looking for something similar to the layout of the dodeka keyboard [3].
