Default pneumatic retracts........ start up?? who would be interested

ok, bear with me a moment. I've been out of the hobby since 09 and I'm trying or looking into getting back in. I have 2 Ziroli warbirds in boxes that need retracts. I think to myself no problem ill just order them. LOL!!! only to find out Robart and Century jet retracts are out of business. WTH!!! doesn't seem like anyone is making them but sierra and he doesn't stock much.

So here is my question. I don't consider myself a smart guy, but I can figure things out. it seems like every other post in here is looking for retracts for there plane. If I was to figure out how to make them and start this up, how many would be interested?? I have no idea the time, what's involved, where to get stock from, but if there is enough people interested I would dig in and figure it out, not only for me, but for all that needed them.

so let me here your thoughts, good and bad....is this a stupid idea??
