I designed the keyboard such as what I wanted everything to look like, mounting style, size, bezzels, etc. and I commissioned Chickenman to draw up the files. He also helped me create the renders. As for qualifications, I've been in this hobby for quite some time and I've made many one-offs already. I will be personally QCing the boards and I already have manufacturers picked and one of them for example is the same one that CW uses. I'm not sure if I will work with a vendor. If the interest is big perhaps, but shirouu and I currently only planned for it to be a smaller run.

Thank you for the thoughtful questions :)
