For that price, I bet you could have a machine shop make you one much cheaper with better materials. I had a sailboat that needed a part for a tiller that was no longer made. On a lark, I went to a local machine shop and they made me the part. The online the part would have cost me about $600. The shop made me one for $80 and they made it out of a tungstun/molybednium allow used as armor plating in Apache choppers. The part is so strong, I could lift the 27' foot sailboat by it........

Just a thought.
