I was thinking in the neighborhood of $95.00 - $100.00, but need to
get firm prices on the material, machine time, and an idea of how
complicated the fixtures would be. I'll try to keep it as low as I
can, though. My prototype set were milled out of a 6"x12"x2" block of
left-over metal, but that is way too wasteful for an actual production
run.
