Krause made handmade / tool-room ones and sold them for 15 thousand
Even using CNC, I have heard of more than one 'attempt' that has failed in the last ten years.
The stainless ones by Mitchel (and several other names) have been only fairly successful and issues in working correctly.
So, not saying it can't be done, but even some recent attempts using CNC had issues with the frames from the rumours I heard?

If I were to guess why these don't work, I'd say that not enough attention was paid to the timing of the springs.
