Well, this is the problem... What I'm intending to make is a hand-held
keyboard.  Once that's taken into consideration, add to it, the fact that I
want 2+ of them to fit... Home made looks worse.  If I can't find a
commercial one, or a smaller way of making a home-made one, I'll find
another way to do it.
