Keyboard Layouts

These plans can be used to lay out key blanks for some keyboard instruments. One should keep in mind (as with all plans) that, since the layouts are printed on paper, they may deviate a small amount from the ideal dimensions (typically about 1/32” over 4 octaves). It is up to the builder to deal with this problem.
