certainly but I wouldn't underestimate it. it's powerful enough to distract you 24/7 and pull you in the weirdest rabbit hole for a long, long time and not much better than online gambling, porn or other obsessions. if can you make any money out of it great, if not you might want to take better care of yourself

and we both know it's not over the last month alone but much longer. not saying, one cannot design/print/build that bunch of keyboards in one month but it takes way longer to develop your taste and go ("mentally") from staggered to ortho to merged-splits layouts

btw, you should learn pcb design with kicad, you could create way more keyboards with much less work haha

however the photo of you and the keyboards is actually very nice! ❤️
