[/b]Hello,
We are Monstargear in Korea. We've launched few keyboards and about to GB a new 60% keyboard.
It's our first 60% alu housing and multi layout boards, so want to check the demands of layout before making it.
"Sangeo" means shark in Korea. We named it after cute shark weight.
Sangeo weight will be made with mat finish PVD coated brass.
(Maybe gloss finish depends on the IC)

During test, we got some scratches, that won't happen for actual product.
But there might be a round marks from machining like in the picture.
And the weight will not bulged, we changed 0.5mm lower the bottom housing.

Update
2021.04.30
We decided to add DZ60 PCB to the kit. Price will be same as before.
We sent sample for build stream and Alexotos will do the stream.
Thanks to maxvoltar ePBT Camo renders are added
2021.05.13
We will run Sangeo60 as in stock sales.
We might do pre-order, but most likely we will do in stock sales.
The Sangeo60 is already in production. And we think it will comes out in late July - August.
We are making 100 ~ 200 housing for each color(White, Black, Grey)
2021.06.11
All the stickers and bags are made, shipped to assembly factory.
Half of the housings are made and ready for the QC.
We expect to get housings by middle of June and we will run another QC.
2021.07.02
All the component has arrived to us for QC.
After we are done with the QC all the Sangeo60 will be sent out to us.
We are sending some of these to Andy Nguyen, ThicThacThok and 3ildcat. You may see the build stream or typing video on their channel soon.
The actual sales will be start in late July
One bad news is due to manufacturing cost has raised we had to adjust to sales price.
Previously we thought $320 for the Sangeo60(with DZ60 PCB) now we have to raise it to $360(with DZ60 PCB).
2021.07.27
Sangeo60 will sales will be start in 30th July 11:00am KST(29th July 10:00PM EST)
There will be a Youtube video by 3ildcat.

hmmmm, interesting, is it 50 or 60%..
-
I'm confused.

I'm confused.
Sry, Fixed

it would be cool if you can add ISO layout support, GLWIC

I was very intrigued when it said 50%, but now I don't know.

Hey, man. It is awesome! It will be better if you add tsangan layout, cuz it is more convenient IMO :)
-
Not putting shark bait or at least a nautilus variety in the renders..... shame on you. SHAME!
Looks good bro.

Will definitely grab some!! :cool: :cool: :cool:
-
Hey that is pretty heavy
-
me likey

There's some in the IC Form:

-
do you have a render with a purely side shot of the board? Other than that, looks cool
-
I love the side profile will consider! Good luck with IC!
-
yup, it's a *checks notes* keyboard
pretty cool weight design, reasonable price, pretty attractive. it's basically a polaris.
-
Plate material?
-
cute
-
is it possible we could get holes on the plate for standoffs for hotswap pcbs
-
I like the how the prototype weight sticks out over the recessed version.
-

That's actually good idea. I'll look into that! Thanks
-
Plate material?
Alu for now, we will add more
-
Also another point I wanna make, assuming you dont use iso yourself, i would think having a plate variant that support iso support and or releasing plate files for those who may want iso coverage.
-
Looks quite nice!
-
-
Looking forward to it.
-
Looks great!
Definitely interested!
-
if the material is alu, please double check the weight ;)
-
Is this still in the works? Really looking forward to seeing this run!

Yeah sure, I just update the page :)
-
i told myself i would stop getting 60%, and then i saw this... take my money. now.
-
How much space is in-between the bottom of the PCB and case?
-
nice
-
Any update on this board?
-
Plate material?
Default one is aluminum.
- Sry forgot I did answer this before
-

We did add holes for hot-swap PCB.
-
What is the front height of the board? Looks kinda high from the videos.
-
I wish it had more plate options like carbon fiber. Maybe even POM, polypropylene, nylon, etc.
-
The shark looks cute
-
Saw alexotos and artfilm sound test sounds pretty good, will focus on own projects before I decide to buy. But Know i'm definitely interested
-
Any chance of half-plate? This + WT60 D PCB will be interesting though
-
Soooo buy two (grey and white) to mimic the colors of a great white shark? Got it ;D
-
I love the design of the bottom
-
any update on this?
