Years ago I had everything lined up to make sandcast aluminum TP's just like the old ones. I laser scanned one of my old ones to make the pattern from. I would have been able to make 6 at a time and total cost with machining (minus plating) was under $100.00 per unit. Obviously, I couldn't get an OK from Mr. Hall, so I didn't move any further.
I also have a design that is an add-on to the existing TP that allows palm muting with no modifications. If I ever get some free time, I'll make a few up with my 3d printer for a test run.
So much **** in my head and not enough time to do anything with it.
