If I get a chance, I am going to look into costs for the pads in aluminum and brass.

I've got a great anodizer who does a lot of different parts for me from small to large. The black hard coat is one that I already do a lot of and he will do pricing by either piece work and batch pricing for me.
Depending on the size of the pin opening I already have rack fixtures setup to use 4 and 6mm rod, but have the ability to add smaller hanging rod on them. So he could hold them right through the pin holes??
If no one can get a decent price on it I'd be more than happy to see what he'd do for us
