Eric:

I love these! They look amazing, and very well suited for the Nord...
although I think there might be too much ratcheting when changing drawbar
settings...

On the subject of projects, though, does anyone know if the Fatar keyboard
that's used in the Nord is available as a separate part? Perhaps direct from
Fatar? Anyone know what part # it is?

Cheers,
Rob

(incidentally, Lego was created by a Danish carpenter in 1934)
