I'm on the brink of stringing up my full-sized, playable LEGO harpsichord.
But for fun, I made a miniature "mock-up" version (out of LEGO, of course)
of what the final instrument will eventually look like:

It's slightly bigger than Miniland scale, but I'm calling it minitaure, at
least in relation to the actual instrument.
Oh, the full-sized version is actually 5 octaves (61 keys), and does include
Technic parts (so pardon the absence of Technic parts in the miniature model).
