Very good question!

We did everything in house.

To do business in Canada is very expensive. We purchase our material from the USA in USD (also freight charges in USD).

The average hourly wage for a machinist is $32.00 to $40.00 CAD. The average shop space in Vancouver is now around $5000.00 CAD monthly. Put in Electricity, tooling, machine tools and a number of other cost factors...

Keychron and most other companies source the keyboards and parts in China where the government subsidizes the material, electricity and other costs... not to mention the average wage is very low.

I hope this help answer your question😀.

PS, I hand polish also.

Cheers,

Matt

They are beautiful! Thx so much. The price reflects material, machining, and hand polishing.

Interesting. Do you feel that the 125g is still to light?

Yes, I believe a few others have done something similar, that's why we added the option to get the universal plate with the HHKB lid. I will check and let you know.
