I'm with you on that but I've had that price in my head for a long, long time. The sub $50 point is what I'm aiming for and having thought enough about the plastic version after having made the wood version, I also have a good handle on what it'll cost me.
Please don’t ever make a plastic one.
An aluminum one would be interesting though.
agreed. metal could be cool. I'd still buy the wood myself (if i buy it at all) but i can imagine metal would make some people really happy even if it was more expensive (witness the apple watch)
