Reminds me of Stuart & Sons, a company from across the Tasman, with their impressive 108 key Piano
On a side note: can any piano experts chime in on why it seems impossible to DIY electric pianos in the same way?
I'd love to see some experimental Rhodes, Wurlitzers or Hohner Pianet derivatives. The only successful ones seem to be the even more conservative Vintage Vibes and Rhodes MK8.
I'd love to see the same DIY community grow around electric pianos as it has electric guitars and synths for the last 60+ years

It's absolutely doable, go for it!
It's been on my 'to do' list for ages, to build my own but I realize how much time it would take and what I'd need in terms of tooling just to produce a serviceable action. So it will probably never happen. But there are zero obstacles to doing this if you are dedicated, have the space, the skills and the funds.
