£80 is about the going rate for the vents, that's what I paid for mine

As Rich said I'm really busy with one thing or another at the mo, mainly trying to get my house up together and my 1 year old daughter is running rings round me lol. The W8 looms were the easiest to make though. If anyone wants to make their own I can give you part numbers and help on how to make them
