Here's my latest design for the rear tower. I'm currently trying to figure out how much these would cost to make because I don't have the go-ahead on the cnc mill I know of.

Well, for a piece of this size the material will cost around $10 per piece. Setup, routing and finishing will run you around another $10 per piece (in the quantities you will be looking at). More than likely there will also be several other charges. So I would be willing to bet, that out the door +/_ $25 USD at a machine shop for anything less than 50 pieces. You might get some places online or in industry who are willing to do it for less. -Jeff
