Inspiration
Inspired by
the Monoliths and large stone formations of Prehistoric
Europe, Menhir is designed to pay homage to their unwavering
persistence. Menhir is a Premium 40% Keyboard sporting a
modified HHKB layout and a flexible, leafspring top-mounted
plate.
The angled exterior provides seamless
integration with your desk while the curved bezels are
pleasing to see and feel. The exterior design and weight are
intentional in an effort to make Menhir a pain to move and
pick up. Inspired by the aesthetics of the KBD661 and
Titan65, and by the unexpected heft of the Neuron, Menhir
weighs in at just over 2.1kg (4.6 lbs)

Quality Expectations and Closing Notes
As much as I would love for every board to be
perfect, no kit can be 100% flawless. There can be small
grains under the surface of the cerakote and the internal
surfaces may be more coarse than external surfaces.
Premium
color limited quantity and price difference is due to the
high B-Stock rates and increased cerakote costs.
As
always, a huge thank you to everyone who has helped along
the way. Many thanks to BA for his design knowledge and
expertise, TheBlackHammer for his early renders,
OneCreativeMind for his awesome artwork, the 40s fam, and
the degens - this board would not be possible without all
the help and support.
