Nice avatar. Which piece exactly? The stabilizing wire? The key inserts? The plate inserts? The whole set?

Also, you can post a WTB (wanting to buy) thread in the Classifieds Forum (http://geekhack.org/forumdisplay.php?59-classifieds)

Making one with 15cm of armonic steel wire and a pair of pliers is a 5 minutes work.
