>>Wow, I am beside myself understanding this.  I concede only a base knowledge of supply and demand, but that these toggle switch guards, which I really like, cost almost $225.00 EACH with a five unit minimum is astounding.  Perhaps you engineer types can shed some light on what makes what seems like a pretty simple design so pricey......even in aviation dollars this seems high.  Only one supplier too (may be part of the problem).  Also, I have not been able to locate anything similar.  I like the openness of the design and what seems to be a smaller footprint than the standard toggle cover I am use to seeing.  What am I missing?

>>I wish I had the skill set to make my own.  Heck, if I used gold, I am not sure if they would cost me as much...and gold would not be the best material for the purpose...or I wouldn't think so.....
