I built this instrument in 1984 from the plans of the "Table Regal" in the Dom Bedos book. There are slight modifications from the original such as the shape of the table, and the key compass. It has been used in several concert performances over the years. In the mid-nineties, it found its home at the residence of Craig Cramer and the late Gail Walton. It has been donated to the University of Notre Dame. - M.P.
