Hello, I am building a small celesta, I already have the keyboard and everything

required, it's just that I cannot find the hammer nuts with fork,

stiletto and hammer, could you tell me where I can find these parts even used??... Since you are in the

sector, do you have any used ones to sell me?

Kind regards

Antonio

I know little about the technology of this instrument, although, I confess, I would like to own one. Why don't you send me a photo of the mechanical parts? I would like to see them. Let's see if we can find something ...or a way to make them. You will have a dimensioned project, right?

Thank you for the answer pianoexpert ... the mechanical parts of the celesta are those of an upright piano.

on this site you can see the mechanism model http://www.glockenspiel-lippert.de/celesta.html

Browsing the internet I saw all the mechanical components but the costs are truly very high, can you tell me where I can find them at a price that is not too excessive?

Best regards

I thank you anyway ... I will try to look for some old mechanics and remove some parts, because I would be interested in 20 action levers with hammers ...

Thanks again

Best regards
