Where and how can I get a custom plate for a keyboard?
http://www.keyboard-layout-editor.com/# ... 09c3153d9e
I tried using builder.swillkb.com to make the design.
How much different is the price of the switch types?
Is it possible I can get the switch for the spacebar in the center instead of offcentered?
Edit: Also, how much does it usually cost?

it depends a lot on where you're located, how many you want and the material.

different switch types are usually around the same price. there are lots of stores that sell switches and also 7bit here:

you can do anything you want if you have cad skills - the plate maker gives you a dxf file that you can drop into any cad software and modify before you send it to a cutter. do be aware that the spacebar cutouts are in a specific place for a good reason; if you move the switch to a non-standard location, you probably won't be able to find a spacebar that works.
then again, if you are designing a board around a nonstandard spacebar that you already have, you will need to modify it.
