Remove computerkeys from an old keyboard. Cut off protruding triangles with all purpose scissors. You can smoothen te underside of the key with a piece of sandingpaper if neccesary. You will need 16 square keys, 2 long (matching) keys for the body, 2 rectangular keys (matching) for the head. It would be wise to perform steps 1 and 2 for all keys, before going on.

I also (very unlike me - I am very suspicious of spam. Many posts by just-joined accounts is unfortunately spam) had a look at your homepage and you have some really nice recycle-projects, especially i like the crow made of biketires - even if I don't read dutch very well (as in barely read it at all :)

I look forward to seeing more of this stuff from you.
