New Holland wants a fortune for their aluminum fingers. I am tempted to just buy some aluminum stock and make my own for $3 a piece instead of $38? What do you guys think, bad idea?

If you can buy the stock for 3 bucks then go for it, but I'm pretty sure you won't buy new stock for that. Aluminum is ~10-15 bucks a pound the last I checked and that was some time ago, then you have to fab them up....
Might make the OEM style look cheap by the time you're done.
I'm not saying you can't come ahead making them. I make some parts too such as steel lines and that sort of thing, but I don't often get too far ahead when I do. Think about it before you dive in too deep.

If you have all the parts that broke off you should be able to find a good welding shop that could weld them for you. BTDT and when I still worked at a place I would fix things like that all the time

I remember when they used to be reasonable. Wow!
Anyway they are aluminum so that if they break off or come loose they will not tear up the
plunger knives. I would definitely make them.Some
originals had a slight curve . Chuck
