Sheesh folks, doesn't anyone have a copy of the Action Handbook?  There the
key
height is measured (get this) from the floor to the top of the key.  I
cannot
find my copy of the book and I cannot remember the measurement (senior
moments).

If you still have the original materials (always a good idea) then measure
them
and then the height of your arrangement.  Use a micrometer to determine
thicknesses (don't screw it down too hard).

Newton,

I have one but the 64mm for key height puts the keys way too high in
relation to the key slip - you can see the bottom of the keys if it's set at
64mm.
