OpenPedal, the Repairable Pedal Harp

openpedal.org Observed source
Editorial interest 81/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

An open-source project documenting a digitally actuated pedal harp and the parts needed to build it.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-13 issue.

Field notes

OpenPedal organizes its material into a build log, reference library, and component documentation rather than presenting only a finished instrument. The homepage identifies pages for bridge pins, the base, pedals, and column, and describes a digitally actuated mechanism intended to replace traditional rod linkage. It is explicitly an ongoing project, so the visible documentation should be read as work in progress rather than proof of a completed, reproducible harp.
