I wanted to share a couple images for a keyboard I'm in the process of making. I've used dactyl-like keyboards before and I've always wanted one that feels solid with high quality injection molded cases instead of the 3D printed one I had, so this is me giving it a go. I didn't show it in the pictures, but it would be hotswappable and it'd have legends and blinds on the keycaps. I've previously operated a small online store called TaikoHub where I was selling 3D printed dactyls that I designed from scratch.

Materials: Injection molded ASA plastic.
Target price: ~$300.
Wired/Wireless: The product would come wired. But may introduce a wireless module afterwards.
Progress to date:
Finished keyboard matrix PCB with Kailh Sockets
Finished PCB Shield (Protects the PCB during hotswap)
Visited manufacturer in Shenzhen
Pending Tasks:
Order prototype
Design for manufacturing to optimize for injection molding
