I see you have the same problem as I did encounter: a rusting shaft that binds 
the keys together... I agree, they really spent big $ for production level 
tooling (and industrial design and engineering) to make the chordset, it is 
quite impressive.

They spent a lot of money on this. There are two castings of the same material 
as the keyboard
and monitors, and two injection molded parts for the keys and the four spacers 
betwen the microswitches.
