FAQs
Building a custom mechanical keyboard requires four essential components: a keyboard kit (case, PCB and plate), keyboard switches, keycaps and stabilisers. Most barebone keyboards include the case and PCB, but you must select switches and caps that suit your style.
The cost of a custom mechanical keyboard in Australia typically ranges from $200 to $800+. Entry-level customisable keyboard kits start around $100, while premium custom keyboards in Australia featuring CNC-machined aluminium or unique mounting styles can exceed $500 before adding high-end switches and keycaps.
“Thock” is the deep, full sound profile many keyboard enthusiasts chase when building or modding a mechanical keyboard. It’s that satisfying, low-pitched sound you hear on each keystroke rather than a sharp clack. To get there, builders usually start with a solid keyboard case, pair it with a non-metal plate like polycarbonate or FR4 and use well-lubed linear switches. Thick PBT keycaps help round things out, absorbing higher frequencies and giving each press that signature “thocky” feel.
