You are going to use a shop that does not have and needs to create the CAD model, the CAM model, the tool pathing, build any fixturing hardware, buy cutters, and do the setup and tear down to get to the next job.
Your one-off pricing will be very different under those conditions.

I think we all know a one off manufactured piece is going to be cost prohibitive that is why my original question was if anyone one reproduced them.
