That's for 5 switches, the plugs are about that too and available at any electrical store, technically you can make it out of lexan with no metal at all, whole thing would be $50 in materials and custom. you could even build in a gfci for another $20

The enclosure is pretty straight forward. A few pieces of acrylic or aluminum, a table saw, a jig saw/dremel and you're done. If you wanted to get fancy, you could find someone local to laser cut the panels for you, then just glue screw them together.

I'd build my own, once my American DJ strip craps out, simply for the ability to have form factor that fit my stand better. Now, I should say that I do have an entire machine shop in my HOUSE dedicated to prototyping (I'm a product designer) and have access to a CNC mill, lathe, 3D printers, etc, so my perspective on the relative ease at which something can be built is different from that of others. That said, to make your own powerstrip is fairly easy project for anyone to muster and which doesn't require a lot of tools, just enthusiasm!

If someone needs laser cutting done just fire me a PM, I've got access to a 2500 watt and 4000 watt if you need something like 1" plate cut.
