The best thing would be to build one, a prototype if you will,
and post the pics on a web site for all to see. Then, offer them
to the rest of us at a price and make them, custom even. Or, if
you don't want to make them, sell the plans. People made a fairly
good side income for years selling plans for things they had
built
and wanted to offer to the rest of the world. My uncle spent a
small
fortune on plans for model radio controlled planes. He must have
had
3-4 dozen working models built and flying at the time of his
death.

So, stop talking and start building. We'd love to see it.  :o()
