    True, making the jig then welding up some tube wouldn't be overly difficult.

    As for the $1,000 for a set of arms, it depends how they calculated it. If its by the hour thats about 8hrs of work + materials to do the arms (assuming they charge around $100per/hr, which is average for a reputable shop)
