I've thought about having a wireform manufacturer do a run of them. Aforementioned friend is willing to loan it for dimensional capture/reproduction. Is this something people would be interested in? If so I can set up a preorder information-gatherer and get interest numbers. Final form would probably be stainless wire to avoid having to chrome it. I'd try very hard to have it made in the USA, but would consider offshore manufacturing if the price was too high (as is the case with circuit boards, for most of our products/projects).
