I'm a leftie fountain pen user. It definitely can be done, but might need some adjustments to how you hold a pen / what inks you use. I've using a lamy safari with waterman ink for about 10 years with no trouble.
I'm not an expert: I've been looking at hwfly to expand the capabilities of the Switch. The system reminds me of the older style cracks that required a modchip to be soldered in.

I did this a few years ago grabbing an ikea vastanby table. Unfortunately it I wouldnt really recommend it, or would at least recommend something else. The size of the top is great, but ergonomically it sucks, its far too high and non adjustable, and the supports for the top get in the way of a good sitting position, will be switching out to a large sit stand desk eventually, hopefully using the same worktop.
A guy in the mechkeys discord posted a clip of his 3D printed mech switches yesterday as well. I believe he is using reed switches instead of a 3d printed leaf but its pretty cool.
