So what could you sell them for and still make it worth it to you? You may have a little side income there, if you can beat out some of the other manufacturers on price. Nice piece though.

well it wouldnt cost much to make more, I would just have to pay for the material, as I cut them myself, I would just have to modify it to what you want it to say on there or if any saying at all, could even have it powdercoated if there is no etching, if i were to think about selling some i would have to see what it costs for material.

you may have just found a new career and might make a living off something that simple. thats sick man. thats clean, subtle but eye catching. i would feel out how much it cost to produce and how much you can sell them for if you want. just lowball all the competitors
