Making oneoffs and making a production quality item that someone will pay for are two different things. Although you might get a few buyers, I don't think you'd make "a fortune". Unfortunately, many will want quality but will commit only to rock-bottom pricing. I think your best bet is to get the parts and do something custom for yourself.
