Hi!
I am a keyboard lover living in Korea.
Since
I started collecting keyboards, I always wanted to create
one that I designed and I think this is the time.
I
always wanted a heavy aluminium keyboard that weighs over
4kg. So I decided to put a big huge weight on the bottom of
this keyboard.
I cannot make sure that this weighs over
4kg, but I’m sure its going to be heavy.
The main
concept of Neptune 80 is “weight.”
Its a simple boxy
looking keyboard with huge weight on the bottom.
The
weight takes about 1/2 of bottom case and is visible from
side.
Even though this is my first IC and GB experience
and I’m kind of afraid, I want to give it a shot.
[specs]
Angle:
7degrees
Material:
- Top and Bottom Case: 6063/6061 (either one of them), thinking of making in FE too.
- Weight: SUS and Brass
-
Plate: Alu and Alu half (same plate design as Whale, Tgr
Jane v2 etc)
Colors: Black, Gray, White, Silver (might add beige and skyblue) There won’t be any anodized option. All of them will be cerakoted.
PCB: Currently working on them.
Layouts: WKL only (maybe wk if theres enough buyers)
Mounting: Supports top mount and Gasket with provided orings.
This is just a very first render. Designs and prices might change during IC but there won’t be any big change.
Estimated Price: 600 USD for Brass weight and 800 USD for SUS weight. 1.3k USD for FE (prices might depend on quantity. Since all are cerakoted, prices went a bit higher than other ICs. I have contacted some aluminium CNC companys and SUS costs more than I expected that’s why it is more pricey than brass ver)
MOQ: looking around 100. Fe will be only made 10 to 15 if there’s enough buyers.
I want to make sure that this is not the final Render/Design.
I will be reflecting opinions from you guys.
This GB/IC will be held via Discord which I found it easier to take opinions and communicate with users.
Thank you!
