Post by: snow_flower on Fri, 27 August 2021, 04:49:12
[IC] Snow_Flower Edition TKL.Ver

Explain
I made the product with the TKL version of Snow_Flower. I'm thinking about 60% arrangement, 75 arrangement, and Ergo arrangement of products with this design. Right now, I'm only going to proceed with WK, WKL version of TKL model. More modeling will be added later. If you go into the Google form, there is a picture that I designed.I like winter, but I was inspired by falling snowflower. Snowflower is my favorite shape and I came up with this design because I like winter.

Product
Material: Aluminum
Plate:Like Monstargear's shark, it is a removable weighting weight made of brass, shaped like a snowflake.
Angle: 5~ 6
Mount: Gasket
Price: $220 ~ 240
GB estimate: none
Vender: Monstargear (estimate)


Here is the Google form

Hello, consider getting a prototype and showing off how the mounting works, how the pcb looks, how the plate looks, making sure the keyboard actually functions.. good luck though

pls learn what an IC is
also I feel like that price is just a number you made up
also what is that render; the nav cluster doesn't align with the rest of the board

Who is quoting you prices when you have holes in your models?

How does one "estimate" which vendor will fulfill this GB?

I am  c o n f u s e d

An actually helpful comment:

I appreciate the excitement, but I would recommend polishing this a bit more, adding renders, and ordering prototypes. I'd also recommend browsing successful ICs and taking notes on the ones you like.

I see that this is your first post. Welcome to the forum, and don't take the troll responses to heart :rolleyes:

Just to make sure I understand this right:

You are estimating that a big keyboard vendor from Korea is going to sell your completely non-functional keyboard "design"?

Yeeeaaah...
That's not going to happen.


Also I'm curious.
How exactly do you get a price estimate for something like this?
It's certainly not design experience...

Estimating I will reply here once actual IC starts.

Welcome snow_flower, enjoy learning something new. Hope you are committed because there is a bit of road left before you reach a successful IC. Don't let us scare you and just take the opportunity to learn. Make us want this board 1-2 years from now!

GL.
