There's an easy answer to that.

It depends on your price point.

Unfortunately, with something this small and this easy to make, your labor (or mill time) is going to KILL you on pricing. Now, if you could get a plastics shop to start cranking them out by the thousands off a small injection mold so that you could sell them for a couple of bucks for a pair... well... I'll tell you one team that would be interested!

Get in touch with AndyMark. I'm sure they go through this all the time and can help you out. Incredible idea!
