Hank Arney here on the list already offers such a thing, he has all  
three sizes, CNC machined, powder coated and pretty much at what it  
cost to have them done - it's not a project he's making any money  
on.  If the students are going to do them as a fund raiser, I'm not  
sure they'd offer them for much less.  He has machined gear clamps,  
oldham coupler disks, and R-390 "green gears" as well. (unless he's  
out of some of them)

One thing I don't think he has are oldham coupler disks for R-390  
crystal decks and the odd coupler the R-392 uses for it's bandswitch  
shaft.  Those might some good short-run projects.
Maybe.

Just sayin...
