FIELD NOTES

Every board in this archive is assembled by hand — switches opened, lubed, and spring-swapped one at a time; stabilizers tuned until they disappear. What's recorded here is the finished object and the decisions behind it: an anodized frame, a set of doubleshot caps, a single accent key, a machine mark left where most would polish it away.
