This is what I could figure out: 1. 50 contacts per manual, but how do I get these?>> Actually you need much less than 50 for the lower manual, and some people only do the upper manual (the foldback kits on EBay assume upper manual only). I had a T-series spinet that I parted out for (among other things) key contacts for my L-295, but once I got a full-size console I didn't bother. I've still got it the manual but I never finished disassembling it. I've also got an M lower manual somewhere, I picked it up for $25 because I can make more than that selling foldback kits off of it (-: but I haven't bothered. << 2. Wires to connect the notes to the proper contacts. I noticed that the wires that connect the notes to the connects are very thin. Are these special wires? >> If I remember right, it's resistance wire. << And what are bussbars? >> They're the bars that the key contacts touch when depressed. I think they go to the drawbars, because the key contacts are connected to the TWG. If I also remember right, L-series spinets have all full-length busbars, so you'll just need key contacts. << I know some of you know excactly what I'm talking about. So let it roll!!! >> I know what you're talking about, but I've never done it - just read about it, and put it on the shelf once I got my now-departed E-112 console. Doug Yahoo!
