About this 3D model

I have restored another harpsichord! It was made in 1976, then recently given to me by the owner because it wasn't playable any more. I've made 3D printed jacks to replace the old wooden ones, and damper holders for the 4 foot stop. It now plays well, and will soon be painted in the 18 century style (red with gold leaf). You can hear it, here: - https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3703861/EMS_harpsichord.mp3 Soon, I'll add 61 solenoids to automate it! Notice that the white notes have white jacks, and the back notes have black jacks! Pointless but fun! Confusingly perhaps, the white notes on this instrument are actually black and the back notes are all white! If you want to know more, email me at mmessiter@gmail.com.
