With the [□ insane, □crazy, □punishing, □________] tarrifs on China, has anyone used cost-effective pcb fabs/assemblers in other countries not subject (at the moment anyway) extreme tarrifs?

I don't believe I can come anywhere close to JLC's cost in the US, so I'm looking for alternatives.

My alternative for just the PCB is OSHPARK. Assembly is all in-house for work projects. The JLC extras (better substrate, plating, etc ... ) price to get close to the same quality you get by default from OSH is much closer (with all the JLC extras) when low volume shipping is accounted for.

I prototype with JLC and production build with OSH for industrial quality projects.
