I'm looking into getting this manufactured. The wobble plates cannot really be machined manually, but I might be able to get the housing and output done on the mill. After that it's a matter of just getting the camshaft and wobble plates done on a CNC.
The input spline I might be able to do on a lathe by boring out a VP stage, but I'm not sure how to do the output. That would have to be wire EDM'd or something similar. I should send an email to Vex asking how they do it.
