How much testing did you do between having a pile of parts, and assembling the keyboard?
First step, use a cheap multimeter to prove the diodes are all connected to the pads they're supposedly soldered to. Then before you solder keyswitches, use a program like aquakeys, and your newly flashed, plugged in board, to see if any keystrokes register.
There are steps in between, again using a multimeter and assuming bare PCBs with no switches, that will let you find any problems before they're buried in acrylic. Good photos are often helpful for folks online to diagnose such things too.
Also: when you plug it in, what does your computer say you just plugged in?
