Either that or find an EDM shop nearby. It is a small enough job you might get it done for free if you ask nicely and the machine is idle at the moment.

They can be... I needed a hex broach last year and it ran upwards of $115. That should be cheaper though

Im sure you could definitely get a shop to do it for you for free or a reduced price.
