    I could make that, but a few small changes will be required for anyone to make it for a reasonable price. You need to change all the sharp corners to rounded corners - something like 3-5mm would be fine. Similarly, adjacent to where you've put the USB connector there are some edges on the angled surface that can't easily be machined. If those could be rounded off then that feature becomes trivial.

    The brass plate and top are easy, again so long as the corner radii aren't too small. It might be possible to mill the switch plate to start with, which for a one off should be cheaper than laser cutting.

    Is that £1000 for five sets, or for one? What thickness of aluminium is required for the base?
