I built a Flemish IX with plastic jacks back in 1980 and continue to find it to be a fine continuo instrument. Especially, after a professional requill a few years back.

Now enjoying more frequent gigs with sackbut and cornetto players favoring 440, I find myself wishing for the convenience of easy transposition, rather than having to lift all the jacks each time. 

Is there any hope to make it transpose with a simple keyboard shift? The rough plastic jack bottoms make this seem challenging.
