Wow--what intricate clockworks--I'm astounded at the quality!
My dad thinks it would be cool if the gears moved when the USB was in the computer.

Nice piece! How sturdy are your creations, because of the thin wood and all...?

Hey man, They're a lot more robust than you'd think. I've accidentally dropped mine down a flight of stairs & trodden on it without any damage. I try to use very hard woods & make the chassis as robust as possible. over the last 4 years I've made around 30 keys & (so far!) none have been damaged during use, & hopefully it will stay that way!

Beautiful and intricate work.
It would be amazing to have one with working clockwork ticking softly when plugged in.
