a "playable" 31et bosanquet keyboard webpage

Have people seen this?

http://monxmood.free.fr/bosanquet/bosanquet.html

It has its limitations but for someone like me who has never had the
opportunity to play a bosanquet keyboard it is fun.

I'd like to see a bigger selection of tunings, like being able to specify
limits and commas, and some other flexibility, like control over sustain. I
think with a longer sustain and a sustain key, it would begin to be a usable
instrument. Perhaps a joystick or graphics tablet would also help, although
I have used neither of these so I am speculating.

That's not the original Bosanquet deisign. I think that's the Ervin
Wilson adaption.

***This is just great, Kurt... I haven't seen this for a *very* long
time, and forgot all about it! I think the Bosenquet 31 could be
*quite* playable and, in fact, I would love to try a real one.
Hopefully, Johnny Reinhard's version will be something like this...

best,
