Since I will not be able to build more frames in the long run for private reasons, I decided to publish my construction data.
As a first step, I have published on the linked page all documents and model data to build a very stable folding frame from aluminum T-profiles, suitable for Deagan 584 Nocturne bars.
As I have time, I will post corresponding data for a Musser M55 bar set.
Key this keyboard layout out. Must be similar to the Tri Chromatic Vibraphone
Here is another low cost idea turned into reality by applying the new possibilities of 3D printing. My next frame will be equipped with these bar posts.
My collected ideas around the vibraphone can be found here:

This is my first version of a usable twistable shaft for vibraphone fans. The concept enables the use on most vibraphones (e.g. Musser M55) for a more or less DIY-self-adaptation as a retrofit kit while continuing to use the existing drive unit.
But it took a rainy November weekend to fit the fans and coupling elements together.
That's what I've been looking for for years.
Hey everyone, I'm looking for a beat to hell M55 that I can buy to tinker with and make better than it was when it came off the assembly line. I will then resell it with some very nice updates and features. Please keep your eyes open for me. PH. 972-762-2638 PIPERvibe@Gmail.com
I had an annoying pedal click on my Deagan 580. I traced it to one of the hinges. Easy fix - wrap Teflon tape. Silent pedal now. :-)

After I was very enthusiastic about the surround sound with the twisted resonator fans, but at the same time didn't want to forego the possibility to play without "wah wah" effect, I looked for a solution to realize the switching between twisted or parallel aligned fans with simple means.
The video shows a first prototype of a corresponding facility, albeit not yet in its original size.
Since the principle works, I'll start to build a full-size version.
