If you want to bring this to more people you should also look into multiple lay-outs and maybe if possible go with PCB mount stabilizers. Otherwise from the design I don't think there is much wrong with it.

Come to think of it, I think you're right. It would be nice if the supported layouts could be varied to suit more people's preferences!

If you only have the model for the 3D printing and want to sell a milled version it is very hard to do a proper IC - the most common reply will be "I'm in if it's cheap enough" so you need to get a price first :)

Oh That's True... I have never asked for a quote for CNC cutting machining yet. I'll have to think about it to alleviate the cost burden. thanks :)

this is a really cool design, i would totally join a GB for this. I'm not sure if this will matter since it looks to be an integrated plate design but will there be options for multiple plate materials?

Yes ofcourse. I plan to try to support different layouts and plate materials after PCB artwork.
One thing to say, the keyboard in the photo attached at the beginning of the thread was made with 3D printing.
I don't know how long it will take to start GB of this keyboard, but thanks for the positive comments.

If the shape is softer, I think it can succeed
