I want this, but I don't want to pay much more than the raw aluminium cost.
The cost of pushing aluminium through an extrusion die is nearly zero. The die cost isn't much anymore in the world of cheap CNC machining. And the R&D costs for coming up with the shape shouldn't be high (and already paid off years ago).

So why is that stuff still so expensive??
