Here you go. HF to the rescue:

I would be hard pressed to fab one for that price - could not if I
considered my time.


My buddy and I came up with ours in about 10 minutes.
The trip to HF would be thrice that long, plus I'd now have to store
that thing. (I hate uni-taskers.)
Somewhere the line would've been crossed at which I would buy one,
perhaps 50?
But I was done with the job in the time it would've taken me to get to
HF and back.
